Overview
Job Site Theft Costs More Than the Stolen Item
When copper wire, appliances, tools or a skid steer go missing, the loss doesn't stop at the replacement cost. Crews wait on replacements, inspections slip, and the schedule moves. Open sites with nobody on them after the crews leave are easy targets, especially in fast-growing areas with many projects going up at once.
Our officers secure sites after hours and on weekends, when most theft happens. They watch the gate, walk the perimeter, check storage containers and equipment, and keep trespassers off the site, including kids and people looking for shelter, who could get hurt and leave you with a liability claim.
During working hours, we can staff the gate: logging deliveries, subcontractors and visitors, and making sure only approved people and vehicles get on site.

Our Process
Coverage That Changes With the Project
-
Site work & foundation
Patrols to protect equipment and fuel while the site is mostly open ground.
-
Framing & rough-in
Higher risk as lumber, copper and tools arrive. Often an overnight officer plus patrols.
-
Finish-out
Appliances, fixtures and HVAC equipment on site. The highest-value phase for thieves.
-
Pre-closing & turnover
Completed homes and units protected until the keys are handed over.
FAQ
Common Questions
What hours do construction sites need security?
Most theft happens after crews leave for the day, overnight and on weekends and holidays. Many builders use an officer from end of day to start of day, with full coverage on weekends.
Are patrols enough for a small build?
For smaller sites and early phases, random patrols are often enough. As valuable materials arrive, many builders add an on-site officer for the finish-out phase.
Can you cover several job sites?
Yes. Builders with several active sites can use patrols that visit each one, with on-site officers at the highest-risk projects.
Do you cover subdivisions under construction?
Yes. Subdivisions with homes in different phases are common targets for appliance and material theft. Patrol routes can cover the whole community.
