Property monitoring & security support
Keeping an eye on properties that would otherwise sit unwatched — empty houses, stands, buildings between tenants and homes whose owners are away.
Sentinel Group is our security and protection-focused division, supporting properties, events, business premises and sites through disciplined monitoring and safety support.
Quiet, consistent presence and people who actually turn up. That is most of the job, and it is the part that is hardest to buy reliably.
Arrangements are built around what you actually need watched, and for how long — a single evening and a standing weekly presence are different jobs.
Keeping an eye on properties that would otherwise sit unwatched — empty houses, stands, buildings between tenants and homes whose owners are away.
Support at gatherings, functions and community events — access points, crowd flow and keeping things calm, without the atmosphere turning heavy-handed.
A consistent presence at shops, offices, yards and warehouses — the ordinary daily cover that makes a premises feel looked after rather than available.
Oversight on active sites: who is on site, whether materials are where they should be, and whether the basic safety disciplines are being kept.
The arrangements that do not fit a standard category — a delivery that needs watching, a handover period, a short window where something valuable is exposed.
Tell us what the risk is, where it is and over what hours. We will be straight with you about whether we are the right fit for it.
Cement, timber, roofing sheets, tools. Most of it is portable and none of it is nailed down until the build is finished. Losses on site do not just cost the replacement — they stop the programme while you wait for it.
Because Sentinel sits inside the same company as our construction division, we understand what is on a site, when it is most exposed, and what should be there at any given stage.

Security arrangements fail when nobody wrote down what was being covered. This is how we avoid that.
What is being protected, from what, and what has already gone wrong before.
Scope, hours, people and approach agreed before anyone is posted anywhere.
Discipline, communication and attention to detail. Turning up, on time, every time.
We assess how the arrangement is working, address concerns and adjust the cover.
What needs protecting, over what hours, for how long. A single evening at an event and a standing arrangement at a premises are priced completely differently, so there is no useful rate to publish.
Tell us the shape of the cover you need and we will quote it in writing, with the scope set out, before anything starts.
Sentinel is one of three. Clients often use more than one — a build and the site cover to go with it, or an event and the promotion that fills it.
An empty property, a site full of materials, an event this weekend. Describe the risk and the hours it matters, and we will come back with what we would put in place.
