How we can help
Construction site security
Protect construction sites and valuable assets with specialist security from BauWatch. We help contractors and developers safeguard projects at every stage, from early groundworks through to completion, across sites where equipment, materials and plant are exposed to risk.
Our solutions combine 24/7 remote monitoring, rapid alarm response, high-visibility CCTV towers, perimeter intrusion detection systems (PIDs) and fixed or temporary CCTV. This layered approach provides constant surveillance across active construction environments and acts as a strong deterrent to trespassers and organised theft.
Construction site crime
Construction site crime continues to present a major challenge for the industry. According to the BauWatch UK Construction Crime Report 2025, 67% of construction professionals reported a rise in crime affecting their projects over the past year. The report also found that 31% of sites experienced delays as a direct result of theft, vandalism or intrusion, with disruption often caused by stolen materials or damaged infrastructure.
BauWatch systems are designed to stop incidents while they are happening. When suspicious activity is detected, our monitoring centre can intervene immediately using live audio challenges, warning intruders that the site is under surveillance and instructing them to leave. If required, operators can contact the police or dispatch security patrol teams straight away, helping prevent theft, vandalism or unauthorised access before it escalates.
Our temporary CCTV record activity continuously, creating a clear visual record of events across the site. This is particularly valuable on construction projects where valuable plant, copper cabling, fuel and power tools are often targeted.

BauWatch uses NPSA approved cameras connected to a BSI Gold accredited Alarm Receiving Centre, delivering reliable monitoring that meets the highest recognised standards.
