ASEL has launched a dedicated service for vacant and void properties, representing a significant milestone for the business and the first time ASEL has expanded its service lines beyond traditional security.
Vacant properties are particularly vulnerable to vandalism, squatting, theft, weather damage, and compliance issues. Owners and property managers also have a legal duty to ensure vacant sites remain safe and compliant with relevant regulations, with failures often resulting in costly damage, delays, or enforcement action.
ASEL’s new vacant property service has been developed to address these challenges by providing an integrated solution for protecting and managing vacant sites, removing the need for multiple suppliers and fragmented services.
The new vacant property security service includes:
Security and monitoring – Rapidly deployable CCTV towers, guarding and patrols, key holding, intruder and fire alarms, permanent fixed CCTV, and perimeter fencing.
Property inspections – Tailored inspection schedules, detailed reporting, compliance and safety checks, and pest control services.
Maintenance and repairs – Plumbing, electrical work, grounds maintenance, boarding up and glazing, cleaning, and clearance services.
Utilities and compliance – Meter readings, waste clearing, and compliance support to ensure properties are fully secure and legally compliant.
The nationwide service is designed for those responsible for the security, safety and upkeep of vacant or void property, including local authorities and housing providers, commercial property owners and developers, landlords and portfolio managers, and rural estate owners.
