YOUR HOUSE. YOUR CREW. YOUR NEXT CASE.

Turn “we should check that”
into “case closed.”

Open a case file and look at your home with fresh eyes. A sticking door. A worn weather seal. Toys left across a path. Home Detective Agency turns the things you walk past into missions you can investigate and work through together.

EVERY HOME NEEDS A DETECTIVE

Build your agency.
Your way.

Make it a family mission.

Let children spot clues and help with simple tidy-up tasks while an adult leads the investigation and handles repairs. Everyone gets a part in looking after home.

Team up as a couple.

Choose a case, compare what you notice and tackle the next step together. Give that “we’ll get to it” list a more playful starting point.

Go solo.

Be your own chief detective. Pick one card, check one area and make a note of what needs attention. Work at your own pace.

A LITTLE TEAMWORK GOES A LONG WAY

Find the clue.
Make the fix.

Swap a vague to-do list for a specific case. Look together, decide what needs doing and enjoy the satisfaction of making progress on the place you share.

Some cases lead to a simple fix. Others belong on a follow-up list for a qualified professional. Either way, you’ve noticed something worth acting on.

BEFORE YOU OPEN THE FILE

A few things to know.

Is this cooperative or competitive?

Cooperative. You’re working towards the same goal: noticing what needs attention and looking after your home. Use it by yourself, with a partner or as an adult-led family activity.

Can children take part?

An adult leads the activity and chooses suitable tasks. Children can help spot clues and tidy everyday items; adults handle the checks and repairs that need experience.

Do I need to fix everything myself?

No. A case can help you identify a job for a qualified professional. Leave hazardous work, electrical repairs and work at height to the right person.

What’s in the deck?

88 tarot-sized home-inspection mission cards, presented as numbered case files with a check to carry out and a date-completed field.
