Winterization services for vacant Georgia property

Empty houses freeze at the first hard night. We winterize vacant and recovered units — after we know they are vacant — and leave a record for the asset file.

Winterization is seasonal vacant protection, not a utility shutoff used as self-help. If someone is still inside, we will not freeze them out. EvictIQ is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice.

When you need this

Use this when a Georgia rental or REO will sit empty through cold weather. If occupancy is unknown, occupancy verification first. If the house is already open or flooding, use emergency property preservation, then winterize once it is stable.

The next step

Send the address, access, and whether water is on. A coordinator confirms vacancy and returns a written price. Related: vacant property maintenance for the rest of the season.

Service area. Georgia only. We file, serve and run setouts across metro Atlanta and surrounding counties — Fulton, Gwinnett, DeKalb, Cobb, Clayton, Henry, Cherokee and Hall. If your property is outside Georgia we'll tell you rather than take the lead.

Common questions

Is Georgia winterization really necessary?

One hard freeze is enough on a vacant house with water sitting in the lines. We will tell you when the forecast and the vacancy make it worth doing.

Will you keep the heat on instead?

Sometimes that is the better scope. Tell us the asset plan. We document whichever method you approve.
