FAQs

What is a home watch service?

Home Watch is defined by the National Home Watch Association as “a visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.” A Home Watch service performs scheduled inspections of unoccupied or vacant properties while the homeowner is away.

At Top Notch Home Watch, LLC, we see ourselves more than just a home watch service; we are your trusted home advocate while you are away.

Is home watch service a security service?

Not as a rule, however, having a visible presence in your empty home may act as a crime deterrent.

Our regular service area is within 25 miles of Spirit Lake. This covers most of Kootenai and Bonner Counties, including Coeur d’Alene, Dalton Gardens, Hayden, Post Falls, Rathdrum, Spirit Lake, Athol, Garwood, Priest River, Oldtown, Sagle, and Sandpoint.
