About us

Live-in Guardians is the UK’s leading vacant property protection specialists. We keep commercial and residential buildings safe and secure by placing our carefully vetted property Guardians to live in them until they are needed again. The squatting of properties and the associated damage caused to the property, combined with the substantial costs involved in removing squatters, has motivated property owners to seek alternative solutions to this problem. Live-in Guardians provides clients with a reliable, efficient and commercial solution for the problems created by empty properties. Property owners can save up to 80% of the cost of using traditional security methods by using Live-in Guardians Limited.

    Can a building bring hope to families? Last week, I visited Noah's Ark Children's Hospice and saw firsthand how thoughtful design can do just that. Every detail of the Ark is incredible. Meticulously designed with families and therapeutic practices in mind, it features everything from a hydrotherapy pool to a sensory room fitted with lights, textures and interactive elements to soothe, engage, and provide relief. The accessible playground and sensory garden allow children to experience the outdoors, even from their beds - thanks to thoughtfully designed doorways that can be fully opened from their rooms. What a fantastic way to provide children with a sense of freedom, fresh air, and connection to a world beyond their room, when mobility is limited. One mum shared how the Ark has made such a difference in her life, from the comfort of being close to her child in the parent quarters and providing respite. To seeing her child light up during moments of play and connection, a testament to the Ark’s wide range of therapies and activities. Visiting the Ark was a powerful reminder of how thoughtful design shapes not just our mood, but our experience of life, especially during the hardest moments. Thank you to the team at Noah’s Ark for the chance to see your work in action. As Live-in Guardians charity of the year, we’re all proud to support the Ark and your fantastic team. 💙 #TheraputicDesign #NoahsArkChildrensHospice #InteriorDesign #SensoryRoom #HospiceDesign #TheArk

  • Brixton’s Iconic Dogstar Falls to Squatters - Just Days After Its Closure After decades as a cornerstone of Brixton’s nightlife, The Dogstar - once celeberated for it music, art and community events - closes its doors for good. But just days after its closure, squatters moved in, turning the historic building into a cautionary tale for property owners. Here’s what we can learn from this story: 👉Vacant Properties are Vulnerable - Even brief vacancies create opportunities for squatters, leading to costly legal battles for property owners 👉Squatters know the loopholes in the law - Notices posted by squatters make it clear: their removal now requires a court order, adding time, cost and stress for owners 👉Active occupation deters squatting - Keeping properties occupied and maintained doesn’t just safeguard buildings - it also preserves their value and role in the community. At Live-in Guardians, we work with property owners to prevent stories like Dogstar’s, keeping spaces occupied and safeguarded so they remain secure, safe, and actively a part of the community. #Brixton #Squatters #PropertyLaw #SquatterPrevention #PropertyMaintenance
