Holiday-home checks and maintenance · Alanya–Kaş

While you are away,
we look after your home.

From Alanya to Kaş, we visit your home at regular intervals while you are away: a 28-point checklist covering leaks, damp, electrics, the garden and security. Every visit is filmed, and the moment it ends a photo report is in your hands.

The survey, the walk-through of our packages and the quote are all free. If you don't like the quote you can walk away without paying anything.

The problem

What happens to an empty house?

Four risks wait for an empty house in a Mediterranean climate. All four start silently; by the time you arrive, the job has grown.

Water

A burst hose runs for weeks

Water is the number one cause of damage in an empty house. A flexible connection hose or a cistern mechanism leaks silently; with nobody there, it is only noticed days later when it reaches the flat below.

What we do: The water meter is read on every visit and compared with the previous reading.

Mould

An unventilated house goes mouldy in three months

Relative humidity stays high through a Mediterranean winter. In a closed house, moisture condensing in cold corners and behind cupboards turns into visible mould. Wiping the surface doesn't fix it; the cause is the damp.

What we do: Humidity is measured room by room and every room is aired for 15–20 minutes.

Pests

An empty house is ideal shelter for rodents

Dried-out traps remove the odour barrier and air conditioning pipe holes become a way in. A cable chewed by a rodent turns into a short-circuit risk the day you arrive.

What we do: Entry points are sealed, bait stations are mapped and checked on every visit.

Security

An unkempt garden announces that the house is empty

Long grass, a full letterbox and closed shutters make it obvious from the street that the house has stood empty for months. Most break-in attempts happen at houses picked out by exactly these signals.

What we do: Post is collected, the garden is kept tidy and forced-entry marks are checked.

The solution

It works in four steps

From survey to first report, the process is clear. No surprise costs at any stage.

  1. 1

    Free survey

    45–60 minutes

    We come to your home, photograph all of it and physically take an opening inventory. The survey, the walkthrough of the packages and the preparation of your quote are entirely free; if you decide against it afterwards, you pay nothing.

  2. 2

    A quote made for you

    Within 24 hours

    Based on what we saw at the survey, we prepare a package recommendation and a firm price. The calculator on this site gives an estimate; the firm figure only comes after seeing the house, and it doesn't change afterwards.

  3. 3

    The visits begin

    Weekly or fortnightly, depending on your package

    Every visit follows the same checklist in the same order. Before the visit you are told the officer's name and staff number; the visit is recorded on camera from start to finish.

  4. 4

    The report reaches you

    Within six hours

    As soon as the visit ends your report is prepared and sent. If a problem was found, we stop anything urgent on the spot; for a permanent repair we ask for your approval first, with photographs and an estimated cost.

Proof

We don't tell you. We show you.

None of our competitors shows the work they do. Below is the video of a check visit and its report — both are illustrative for now; our real visit recording and its report will replace them before launch.

Illustrative visit recording. In real recordings, faces, addresses and personal belongings are blurred. The entire visit is recorded; we send it to you on request.

In your own language

You don't need to speak Turkish or English

Just state your native language on the survey request form. We bring an interpreter who speaks it to the meeting — and we don't charge you for it.

  • Choose your native language on the request form; we come to the survey with an interpreter who speaks it.
  • The interpreter is free of charge and is never added to your quote or monthly fee.
  • All your inspection reports are produced in your native language.
  • WhatsApp messages and urgent notifications are handled in the same language.

Your safeguards

“Can I hand these people the keys to my home?”

That is the right question. The answer should be a written protocol, not a slogan. We have written all of it down — from the insurance to where your key is kept.

Staff screening

We obtain and hold the criminal record check for every officer who enters your home. Before the visit you are told their name, their staff number and that the check has been completed.

  • The name and staff number of the officer coming to your home, and confirmation that their criminal record check is current, are sent to you before the visit
  • Identity verification and two reference calls are carried out
  • Every member of staff has a staff number, and it appears on the report
  • If an outside tradesperson is coming, a criminal record check is obtained for them too, and you receive the same confirmation

Key protocol

Your key is numbered and never matched to your address.

  • Handover and return are recorded and signed
  • Keys are kept in a locked cabinet, marked with a code rather than an address
  • Access rests only with the operations manager, and is logged
  • Alternative: a smart lock with a temporary code for each visit

Camera recording

The visit is recorded from start to finish. This protects you and our staff alike.

  • Continuous body camera video recording
  • Sound is off by default; it is turned on only while the officer explains a finding
  • Recordings are kept for 30 days, then deleted automatically
  • The recording is sent to you on request

Data security

Your address and the photographs of your home are not marketing data.

  • Photographs and reports are stored on servers located in Turkey
  • Access rests only with authorised operations staff
  • Address details are not used for marketing

Your own language

You don't need to speak Turkish or English; we bring the interpreter with us.

  • Just state your native language on the survey request form
  • We come to the survey with an interpreter who speaks it — free of charge
  • All inspection reports are produced in your native language
  • WhatsApp messages and urgent notifications are handled in the same language

Frequently asked

The most common questions

Do I have to give you the key to my home?

No. With the Exterior Check package no key is taken and nobody enters. If you would rather not hand over a key, you can fit a smart lock and set a temporary code for the visit time, or leave the key with a neighbour or the complex management for us to collect on each visit. If you do hand over a key, a handover record is signed and the key is kept numbered in a locked cabinet — with no address on it.

How do I know who is entering the house?

Before every visit you are told the name and staff number of the officer who will come. The visit is recorded from start to finish on the officer's body camera, and the recording is shared if you ask for it. Everyone who enters your home — whether they are on our own payroll or part of a contracted team we work with in the busy season — is subject to the same rule: a criminal record check is obtained, they are tracked by staff number, and the visit is recorded on camera.

What happens if something is damaged?

We hold professional indemnity and third-party liability insurance; the policy number and cover are shared on request. Damage caused by our team's fault is covered. And because every visit has a camera recording and photographs, when the damage occurred is never a matter of debate.

I don't speak Turkish or English. How will we communicate?

Just state your native language on the survey request form. We come to the survey meeting with an interpreter who speaks it, and we charge nothing for this. All your inspection reports are produced in your native language too; WhatsApp messages and urgent notifications are handled in the same language.

When and how do I get the report?

Your PDF report arrives by email and WhatsApp within six hours of the visit ending. It contains the checklist, 15–20 dated photographs and, where there are findings, the estimated repair cost. You can download and read a complete real report from the Sample Report page on this site.

A neighbour or a friend keeps an eye on my place. Why should I pay you?

A fair question, and it is exactly where most of our clients come from. The difference is not whether someone looks at the house; it is whether anything is written down. The person you know drops by, glances around and tells you it is all fine. That is well meant, but it is not a measurement. On every visit we read the water meter and compare it with the previous reading, measure the humidity room by room, and record all 28 items with dated photographs. A meter notices a silent leak; an eye does not. The second difference is liability: our team is insured, the criminal record check is confirmed to you in advance, keys are taken against a signed record, and the visit is filmed from start to finish. If something goes wrong you have a policy and a record to fall back on. You cannot invoice a neighbour for a mistake; you can only lose the friendship. Let us be straight: if you have a small flat and the person you know really does go inside regularly, you may not need this service. But with an empty house the point is not to hear that nothing is wrong; it is to find out in time when something is. If you are unsure, start with the Exterior Check package or a single Season Closing and Winterising service, see the report, and decide afterwards.

Why isn't a firm price published on the site?

Our package prices are published openly. But the size of your home, its garden and its pool change how long the work takes: a 90 m² flat and a 400 m² villa do not pay the same. That is why the calculator gives you a range built for your home rather than a single figure — and the range is built from the package price, not invented for the calculator. Your location does not change the price: we work with our own team in every district. The firm price is settled after the free survey. We don't want the price to change after the survey — so we look first and price afterwards.

Is the survey really free?

Yes. At the survey we take an inventory of the house, photograph it and prepare a quote for you. If you decide not to take the service you pay nothing, and the inventory record is yours to keep.

Let us see your home first, then talk about price

The survey is free and commits you to nothing. In 45 minutes we take an inventory of your home, photograph the risk points and leave you a copy.

The survey, the walkthrough and the quote are free. If you don't like the quote you pay nothing — there is no deposit, no contract and no cancellation fee.
