A veteran police officer. Now protecting your property.
I was a police officer in a large metropolitan city and worked on a surveillance unit watching criminals break into homes and businesses. Thats why I install security cameras built to capture real evidence!
A lot of Blue Ridge properties are not watched every day. Cabins sit empty between weekends. Rental guests check out and the next person may not arrive for days. Mountain homes sit back off the road where nobody can see the porch, the basement door, or the driveway.
Southern Charm Security installs alarm systems built for the way people actually own property in Blue Ridge. We protect doors, windows, motion areas, garages, lower levels, storage rooms, and other entry points that are easy to overlook. We can also add smart locks, flood protection, fire detection, and optional monitoring.
Whether it is your full time home, a weekend cabin, a short term rental, or a business near downtown Blue Ridge, the goal is simple. Know something is wrong while there is still time to do something about it.
Blue Ridge draws people in for all the right reasons, the mountains, the Toccoa River, Lake Blue Ridge, and one of the most popular vacation rental markets in North Georgia. But those same properties that sit empty between guests or spend weeks unoccupied while owners are back home are exactly what thieves look for. Blue Ridge’s property crime rate runs above the national average, and with thousands of cabins scattered across mountain roads and wooded lots in Fannin County, most of them have no one nearby to notice when something goes wrong.
Whether you own a primary residence off Windy Ridge Road, a vacation cabin in the Aska Adventure Area, or a rental property you manage from a distance, a professionally installed camera system gives you eyes on your property around the clock.
In Blue Ridge, a lot of homes and cabins sit empty for weeks at a time. Maybe you are back in Atlanta or Florida. Maybe your rental guest just checked out. Maybe the temperature drops overnight, a pipe freezes, and nobody is there to stop the running water!
By the time someone finally walks in, the damage is already done.
Southern Charm Security installs flood detection and automatic water shutoff devices that help stop small leaks before they turn into ruined floors, soaked drywall, damaged furniture, mold, and a massive insurance claim. If water is detected, the system can automatically shut off the main water supply and alert you through the app.
And with optional LifeQuality monitoring, your system can go even further. If the temperature inside your cabin drops too low, the system can preemptively shut the water off before frozen pipes become burst pipes.
You can also turn your water on or off anytime from your phone, whether you are five minutes away in downtown Blue Ridge or two hours away at home.
I spent 20 years as a police officer. I’ve seen what happens when properties aren’t protected — and I’ve watched criminals choose their targets. That experience is what I bring to every single install.
At Southern Charm Security, you’re working directly with me, Josh. From the first call to the finished installation. Every camera system is designed around how you actually live, not a one-size-fits-all package.

Talk to him for 5 minutes and you’ll know this is a business owner and person you can trust to work on your home. The installations were meticulous and his follow-up and support was outstanding.Posted on ALLPRO AUTOMOTIVETrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Josh is great! He responded quickly, provided a quote that was accurate and gave a great product! We could not be happier! If you want forever light, you will not regret calling himPosted on Michael MehrhofTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Josh was excellent. Our lights are perfect. Highly recommend!Posted on Shannon CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish, the installation of our Oelo permanent lighting was a fantastic experience — Josh was professional, punctual, and clearly knew the product inside and out, taking the time to ensure clean lines, no visible wiring, and everything perfectly level. The lights themselves are stunning, and the app control makes it incredibly easy to switch colors and patterns for any occasion or just everyday ambiance. If you’re on the fence about permanent architectural lighting, don’t hesitate — the quality of both the product and the installation speaks for itself, and we couldn’t be happier. Worth every penny!Posted on Beverly BurnettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience from start to finish. Josh did an excellent job installing our cameras — clean, professional, and very knowledgeable. The cameras are clear, the system works perfectly, and being able to check the office from my phone is a huge plus. Highly recommend!Posted on Jimmy “Jimmy Oneline” RandazzoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What an excellent company. 100% satisfied with the service I received from Southern Charm. They came out a day or two in advance to survey the site. On the day of my installation, they had everything they needed, and it went off as smoothly as silk. They showed up when they said they would, they accomplished everything they told me they could, and they made some fantastic recommendations. I 100% will use them again.Posted on Maple Island LandscapingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Quality cameras, really happy with the purchase.
