Trusted Local Referral Network in Central Alberta
A well-cared-for home often requires more than scheduled Home Watch visits.
While you’re away, you may need a contractor, cleaner, landscaper, tradesperson, insurance professional, real estate professional, or another local specialist. EquaVita’s Preferred Referral Network helps homeowners connect with independent professionals serving Sylvan Lake and surrounding Central Alberta communities.
Our role is simple: help make finding local support easier when you need it.
EquaVita may introduce you to a professional based on the type of service you are looking for and our familiarity with local providers. The professional remains completely independent, and you retain full control over who you contact, what services you request, what work you authorize, and the agreement you enter into.

Need a Local Professional?
If something requires attention at your property and it falls outside the EquaVita Home Watch scope, you remain in control of deciding what happens next.
You can use your own preferred contractor or service provider. Alternatively, you can ask EquaVita whether we can provide an independent local referral from our network.
For example, if a Home Watch visit documents a visible condition that requires professional attention, we can communicate the observation to you and, where appropriate, help connect you with a relevant local professional.
You choose the provider.
You authorize the work.
You arrange the agreement directly with the provider.

An introduction
A Trusted Name We Should Know?
Some of the finest professional relationships begin with a personal recommendation.
If you're an EquaVita client, property owner, or local professional with a business or service provider whose work and character have earned your confidence, we welcome your introduction.
Whether they serve residential, commercial, industrial, or institutional clients, we are always interested in becoming acquainted with exceptional professionals in our community.
Recommendations are reviewed independently before consideration for the EquaVita Preferred Referral Network.
How we choose
Our Standard
Inclusion within the EquaVita Preferred Referral Network is considered individually and is not automatic.
An application, introduction, or recommendation does not constitute acceptance, endorsement, guarantee of work, or guarantee of referral volume. EquaVita may request additional information, credentials, references, licensing, or proof of insurance as part of its consideration process.
Our network is intentionally selective because the quality of every professional relationship associated with EquaVita matters.
When a client asks us whom they might call, we want to be proud of the names we provide.

- A warranty of services
- A guarantee of availability
- A guarantee of pricing

EquaVita does not perform the referred work and does not assume responsibility for the provider’s services.
If something is found
When a Home Watch Visit Identifies Something That Needs Attention
EquaVita’s role is to observe, document, and communicate according to your selected Home Watch service.
If a visible condition is identified that appears to require attention, we document what was observed and communicate it according to the agreed notification process.
From there, you decide how to proceed. You may:
-
01
Contact your own preferred provider
-
02
Request an EquaVita referral
-
03
Provide further direction
This approach keeps responsibilities clear while giving homeowners access to local connections when they need them.
