Protecting people – this is at the core of what we do. We believe that your people are your biggest assets. Our people protection services are designed to help you mitigate the safety risks and security threats faced by your people on a daily basis.
People
We understand the importance of protecting your property from security threats such as vandalism, squatters, break-ins and theft – but our services extend far beyond this.
Property
We recognise there is a fundamental need to secure your business critical assets, from vacant land, development sites and compounds, to plant, materials and fuel. As a leading provider of sustainable security, we are perfectly positioned to secure, monitor and protect your valuable assets.
AssetsOperating throughout England, Scotland and Wales, we provide a range of vacant property management services that save time, hassle and most importantly – money, including property checks, insurance compliance, open and lock up and keyholding services.
As a leading vacant property management company in the UK, Clearway provides a full range of vacant property services designed to prevent property damage and deterioration, preserving the condition of your property.
If you own vacant rental homes, are a landlord for an unoccupied home or manage a portfolio of unoccupied properties, your property is under threat. It’s a fact that the fabric of a vacant property deteriorates far quicker than occupied premises.
Vacant property management in the form of clear-and-clean, utility drain down/isolation and regular property inspections is essential to ensure vacant property insurance compliance and maintain the value of the asset.
We provide empty property services to a number of clients such as government organisations, estate agencies, housing associations and retail businesses. Our range of vacant property management services are supplemented by our environmental services which include clearance, cleaning and control of pests and invasive plants.
Clearway’s suite of fully insurance-compliant products and services are designed to mitigate any risks and retain the full value of your assets and help you to comply with any insurance stipulations.
Significant evidence exists to confirm that the likelihood of damage to, or injury from an empty property is very high even if the property is only temporarily vacant, such as it would be prior to sale or refurbishment.
In the UK alone there are around 9000 fires yearly in empty buildings. In addition, UK property is often damaged, contents or fixtures are stolen and often fall victim to vandalism, fly-tipping and illegal occupation by squatters or travellers.
Water damage is a further concern, particularly where maintenance and repairs are inadequate. Our dedicated and trusted management team take care of these issues, keeping you compliant with insurance requirements.
Our reliable open/lock up service ensures your staff have guaranteed access to your building at the required and specified time. Utilising the Clearway open/lock up service also guarantees your property or vacant area is completely secure at the specified times.
Following the closure of unoccupied properties or sites, your Clearway staff member will check all of your staff have left the building and that your building or site is secure prior to setting the alarm system. Our open/lock up service is perfect for organisations with multiple properties.
Security breaches can happen during the early hours of the morning or late at night, and you simply may not have the personnel in place to be able to respond to these threats around the clock. Our keyholding services are a vital part of your vacant property management strategy.
You may also need a dedicated keyholder to respond to alarm activations. Managing the response to any alarm activation poses significant cost, and time pressure, as well as safety considerations, should the alarm be triggered by an intruder. Many alarm activations prove to be false or non-critical. Reasons include power surges, insects, and sensor errors – however, every activation must be treated as an intrusion to protect your premises and assets.
Our dedicated unoccupied property management team based at our NSI Gold Alarm receiving centre are on hand to quickly and efficiently respond in the event of a security breach.
Whilst it’s recommended for highly vulnerable properties, continuous on-site security is not always required for every empty site. It may suffice to carry out regular vacant property inspections to stay on top of common issues that unoccupied properties face.
As a leading UK vacant property management company, we provide advanced warning of any vulnerabilities before significant issues arise. Our checks include exterior checks to assess the perimeter of the property, utility checks (including meter readings for bills) and interior checks. As part of our void or vacant property management service, a full report will assist the property owner or landlord in complying with relevant insurance requirements.
Empty, void or vacant property cleaning is of paramount importance when tenants have moved-on, been evicted or have passed away as there can be a significant amount of rubbish in bedrooms or communal areas, or hazardous material present, leaving it uninhabitable and unusable.
It’s essential that the site is attended by a professional empty property cleaning specialist to clear the area, especially in the presence of dangerous substances, drug paraphernalia or even human remains which can pose a significant health threat.
