As the vibrant days of summer give way to cooler temps and shifting skies, fall is the perfect season to take stock of your property—especially if it will be unoccupied in the months ahead.

At Coastal Home Watch & Concierge, we know that seasonal transitions bring new risks for homeowners in South Brunswick County. From increased storm activity to HVAC failures during the first cool snap, small issues can quickly turn into big problems if left unchecked.

So how can you stay ahead?


1. Update Your Home Watch Schedule

Heading out for the season? We recommend a fall-specific check before departure to:

  • Confirm all windows and doors are secured

  • Remove perishable items and unplug small appliances

  • Test smoke detectors and security systems

  • Prepare outdoor spaces for wind and rain


2. Be Storm Ready

September marks the peak of hurricane season in the Carolinas. Our team performs both pre- and post-storm inspections, so you’ll never be left wondering about the condition of your home.

We document any damage, handle emergency vendor coordination if needed, and keep you in the loop every step of the way.


3. Plan for Maintenance Now

Fall is a smart time to handle small tasks before they become larger concerns. Our concierge services can help schedule seasonal maintenance like:

  • HVAC servicing before cold weather hits

  • Gutter clearing to avoid roof drainage issues

  • Minor repairs or vendor coordination


4. Customized for Your Peace of Mind

No two homes—or homeowners—are exactly alike. That’s why our services are tailored to your needs. Whether you want weekly visits, monthly check-ins, or storm-only inspections, we’re here to provide flexible, professional care you can trust.


Serving South Brunswick County with NHWA-accredited, bonded, and insured care. Your home deserves nothing less.
