Construction Site Security Bristol
Construction Site Security services are needed to secure buildings from intruders, vandalism or any activity that could cause disruption to the ongoing work and may jeopardise worker’s safety or incur a financial loss to the business.
Having a SIA licensed security officer deployed on a construction site not only offers a visual deterrent for speculators but also act as a physical barrier between the trespassers and your sites whilst minimising any chance of crime, trespassing and damage to the assets.
Construction sites are the easiest target for vagrants and trespassers as in most cases despite the site being fenced up it can still have multiple access points therefore it is necessary that Site security is in place at all times to protect valuable equipment on site and ensure the safety of workers on site, and general public.

Construction site security FAQs
What security risks do construction sites face?
Construction sites see high rates of trespass, especially once work has finished for the day. The risk of materials and equipment going missing rises in the late hours when workers are off site. A visible security presence deters this and helps keep the public safe.
Do you assess the site before starting?
Yes. Before starting, we visit the site, carry out a detailed inspection and produce Risk Assessments and Method Statements. We share these with you and review them as conditions on site change.
What does a construction site security guard do?
Our guards control who comes on site, give access to tradesmen and contractors as you instruct, carry out regular foot patrols, report health and safety hazards, keep pathways and emergency exits clear, lock up once contractors leave, log any incidents and respond to alarm activations.
Can you cover short-term or temporary projects?
Yes. We can provide security at short notice for short-term and temporary construction projects, subject to availability.
