Home Maintenance & Repair Service
Do you feel worried about your home when you go away on holiday?
Do you have a holiday home in Nottinghamshire which you worry about when empty?
Maybe your work forces you to work away from home?
Here at Sherlock Maintenance we offer a home watch service in Nottingham that puts your mind at rest.
The Holmes Watch Service provides you with piece of mind and less worry while your away on holiday, your holiday home is empty or your work requires you to work away from home.
While your away we will visit your home twice everyday for residential and twice a week for holiday homes, monitoring your house for piece of mind.
Our staff will be given a checklist of areas and items that need to be checked to ensure no (if any) potential leaks, damages to property or garden area have occurred, or are about to happen while your away.
If anything minor like a fence had blown down or guttering had begun to leak we will notify you by email, and you can get back to us in your own time if you want us to repair it, we will then supply you with a quote beforehand.
If a leak or an attempted burglary were to occur it would be handled through the right channels and you to be notified in an instance.
You will also have direct phone contact to Teresa Holmes our Customer Service Relations Manager if you ever need to speak with her.

Act as your local contact for such immediate concerns as alarm, fire/police, neighborhood associations, deliveries etc. – a liaison to you. Someone to make local decisions for you in your absence.
If your home has internet access we will install two of our own wireless I.P. Cameras to the front and back of your home.
These cameras only require a plug socket to operate and will be placed inside on a window sill.
They will provide us with 24 hour monitoring and give you an extra piece of mind.
The cameras will be directly connected to our phone, and if someone was to walk in front of the cameras field of sight we will be alerted straight away by phone notification and live video.
