Golden Rule Home Watch & Concierge is the innovator of the Hi-Tech Hi-Touch Home Watch System℠ which combines the use of environmental sensor technology AND trained people to provide comprehensive home watch services.  You DO NOT need to have someone live in your home when you are away.  If you need Home Watch in Northern Virginia then the Golden Rule Team is the answer.

Exceptional Care for Your Home

Hi Tech – Our team utilizes portable, hand-held environmental sensor technology to validate the conditions of your home.  These include:

  • Temperature  – Should be high enough in winter to prevent frozen pipes and low enough in summer to avoid damage to household items.
  • Humidity  – A well functioning HVAC system may help to achieve an optimal level that avoids the growth of mold in summer.
  • Moisture/Water  – There should not be water outside the plumbing.

Hi Touch – A Golden Rule Home Watch team member visits your home weekly or bi-weekly to check everything on the exterior and interior to make sure that all is in order.   Using a custom checklist developed for your home, our team members visually check for any irregularities, issues, or problems.  Nothing replaces the hi-touch element of home watch…the eyes and ears of trained people.

Some of the areas inspected by the Golden Rule Team:

Exterior:

  • Roof – signs of storm damage, missing shingles
  • Gutters – presence of leaves, snow/ice buildup
  • Sidewalk – any cracks, obstacles, snow/ice accumulation
  • Lawn – overall condition, erosion, confirmation of lawn service, irrigation system operating normally
  • Siding – Intact, no damage
  • Deck – Items in place, damaged or rotten components
  • Pool area – Cover in place, equipment operating

  • Bathrooms – validate that toilets and sinks not leaking and are flushed or run regularly
