How to protect your empty villa from damp and faults

The risks of a closed villa

Without regular attention, the most common problems are:

• Damp and mould from poor ventilation (damage often above €6,000)
• Green pool water in just 7–10 days without maintenance
• Water leaks undetected for weeks, causing major damage
• Electrical faults, pests and garden deterioration

Prevention that works

Deterioration is avoided with presence and routine, not emergency repairs:

• Regular inspections with ventilation and systems checks
• Continuous pool and garden maintenance
• Humidity and climate control by season
• Early detection of leaks and faults

The cost of doing nothing

Insurance for an unoccupied home is more expensive and covers less. And an undetected leak can escalate from a few hundred to tens of thousands of euros. Prevention is always cheaper than repair.
