Why Vacant Properties Need Professional Security Inspections
Across the UK, an increasing number of properties are sitting vacant for extended periods, leaving them exposed to vandalism, illegal occupation and the unauthorised use of gas, electric and water supplies. Without a visible deterrent or regular inspection regime, these empty buildings quickly become attractive targets for squatters and youths looking for an easy way in.
