Protocol
Four steps. One point of contact. No drama.
A straightforward working process that gives owners and agents back control of an empty building — from the first brief through to an ongoing routine.
01
Brief
Site brief & risk read
You tell us about the property, the history and the people involved. We do a no-cost read of the risk profile and tell you where the real exposure is.
02
Set up
Keys, access, cadence
Secure key collection, contractor list, inspection cadence and response thresholds agreed in writing — before anything happens on site.
03
Attend
Inspect, patrol, respond
Scheduled inspections and mobile patrols running to plan, with rapid response layered in for alarms, call-outs and anything unexpected.
04
Report
Evidence & escalation
Photo-backed reports after every visit or incident, with plain-English escalation when something on site genuinely needs your attention.
Approach
More than guarding. Better control.
We built Urban Asset Protection around the kind of buildings that cause owners and agents the most stress — the quietly difficult ones that never quite stay quiet.
Empty buildings don't stay empty for long. They attract attention, attract attendance, and attract a slow, steady drip of calls that never happen at a good time.
Principle · I
Measured presence
Visible where it deters, discreet where it shouldn't draw attention.
Principle · II
Evidence first
Every visit leaves a paper trail the insurer, agent and owner can read.
Principle · III
One contact
You speak to the person responsible for the site. Not a rota.
Principle · IV
Straight talk
Plain-English escalation. No jargon, no noise, no padded bill.
Vacant buildings bring pressure — repeated call-outs, fly-tipping, failed locks, unexpected contractors on site, weather damage that was "probably already there", and the low-grade uncertainty of not knowing what's happening inside a property you own but don't visit. Most of the cost isn't the big incident. It's the drip.
Our work is to absorb that drip cleanly. Scheduled inspections at a cadence that fits the risk. Keys and contractor access handled properly. Rapid response when something actually happens. A written, photo-backed trail on every attendance so the file is ready the moment an insurer, buyer or lender asks for it.
We cover vacant and vulnerable property across Sussex, Surrey and the Thames Valley area. Every site is assessed on its location, risk profile and the attendance it requires, allowing us to provide a clear, practical protection arrangement for landlords, agents and operators who want confidence, not chaos.
