About Assured Home Watch of Naples
Assured Home Watch, LLC is a family owned and operated business started to assist local residents with their winter homes. We bring many years of experience in Florida living to the table. Our goal is to provide the type of service that will help our clients feel comfortable in referring us to their friends and acquaintances. As a new company, we want to grow to become the premiere home watch company in Naples and Bonita Springs. We offer home watch and concierge services along with skilled handyman duties for our preferred clients. We decided to create Assured Home Watch with our client’s ease of mind at the forefront. We are doing it the right way! Our first step in this journey was to become accredited by the NHWA, which does an extensive background check on all of its members.
DJ and Jim attended the comprehensive home watch boot camp to become Certified Home Watch Professionals (CHWP). The curriculum taught is based on years of National Home Watch Association’s experience and is a collection of Home Watch best practices. The program is detailed oriented and focused on providing clients with the best inspections home watch has to offer. We are registered with Florida and Collier county to do business as Assured Home Watch, LLC. We are also insured and bonded. To put the cherry on top, we have elected to go with electronic reporting software that is easy for our clients to access and provides GPS location. Our clients know we have checked their house!
We perform home services in both Naples and Bonita Springs.
