What North Fort Myers does to an empty house
North Fort Myers has a mix of housing you won't find anywhere else in Lee County, and each kind fails in its own way. These are the problems we look for.
Manufactured and mobile homes
Much of North Fort Myers is manufactured housing, and those homes have their own weak points: tie-downs, skirting, roof seams and AC units on stands. We check all of them, and look underneath for standing water and pests.
Gated and 55+ communities
Every community runs its gate and rules a little differently. We set up access with yours before the first visit, and many associations ask owners to name a local contact while they are away. That can be us.
River and canal homes
Homes along the Caloosahatchee, in Lochmoor and Waterway Estates and off Hancock Creek come with docks, seawalls and lifts. We check the waterfront on the same visit as the house.
Boat watch →Hurricane season
Ian's surge and wind did heavy damage along the river in 2022. We put up shutters before a storm, check the house as soon as it is safe, and fly a drone over the roof for your insurer.
Storm services →Summer heat and humidity
A closed-up house in August can grow mildew in days if the AC quits. We record the indoor humidity every visit and check the AC, the drain line and the air handler.
Alarms in unincorporated Lee County
North Fort Myers is not a city, so alarm registration and police response run through the Lee County Sheriff's Office. We can be the local keyholder on your alarm call list, 24/7.

What our clients say
“I’ve worked with a few home watch services, but Ryan Gartrell stands out. Their attention to detail and consistent communication gave me total peace of mind when I was away.”
“After Ian hit while we were on vacation, their team not only informed us promptly but also installed our shutters and put an emergency tarp on our roof. Coming back to a home that was protected was such a relief.”
“Their reports after each visit, coupled with their responsive team, make us feel like we’re there even when we’re miles away.”
North Fort Myers home watch FAQ
Do you cover all of North Fort Myers?
Yes. North Fort Myers borders Cape Coral, a short drive from our office. We watch homes from the Caloosahatchee riverfront and the canal neighborhoods to the golf communities, manufactured home parks and acreage along Bayshore Road.
How much does home watch cost in North Fort Myers?
Our plans are $65 a month for one visit, $109 for two visits and $179 for four visits, with a written report after every visit. Boat watch, keyholder, storm and concierge services can be added. There is no long-term contract.
Do you watch manufactured and mobile homes?
Yes. Along with the inside of the home, we check the skirting, the visible tie-downs, the roof seams and the AC on its stand, and look underneath through the access points for standing water and signs of pests.
I live in a gated or 55+ community. How do you get in?
Tell us how your community handles visitors and we will set up access with the gate or the association before the first visit. Many associations also ask owners to name a local contact while they are away, and you can list us.
Can you be the keyholder for my alarm in North Fort Myers?
Yes. North Fort Myers is unincorporated, so alarms register with the Lee County Sheriff's Office. You can list Trident Home Watch as a keyholder there and on your monitoring company's call list, with or without a home watch plan.
What do you do when a hurricane is headed for North Fort Myers?
Before the season we agree on a storm plan for your home. When a storm is named we carry it out, including shutters if you have them. Afterward we check the property as soon as it is safe, send photos, fly a drone over the roof when conditions allow, and arrange emergency tarping if you need it.
