Why Accreditation Matters for Your Lake Home

Trust your property to accredited professionals who deliver the highest standards of care and security.

Protecting Your Lakefront Property with Confidence

Why Settle for Less?

Hiring a non-accredited home watch service can mean trusting your property to a provider that may not meet recognized industry standards. When your Lake of the Ozarks home is vacant, experience, accountability, and documentation matter.

Lake Guard Home Watch is proudly accredited by the National Home Watch Association (NHWA).
Our accreditation was formally announced on March 17, 2024, confirming that we meet the NHWA’s nationally recognized standards for professional Home Watch services.

Background Checks: All Lake Guard employees, including ownership, undergo extensive background checks. Only vetted, trustworthy individuals have access to your home.
Bonded and Insured: Lake Guard is fully bonded and insured, offering you additional protection and peace of mind.
Industry Best Practices: Our inspection protocols follow the NHWA’s established Industry Best Practices. That means thorough visual inspections, documented reporting, and professional standards you can rely on.
Accountability & Professional Standards: NHWA accreditation requires adherence to strict ethical and operational standards — not just marketing claims.
