HOME CHECK

If you live in the jurisdiction of the Durham County Sheriff’s Office, request a home check while you're away. Call (919) 560-0900 to schedule a home check and we'll assign a deputy with the Patrol Unit to visit your property.

Please note, the home check service provided by the Sheriff's Office is a supplement to your home security system, not a replacement or a deterrent.
