Before you call

What site supervisors ask us before they call

What site coverage costs

Temporary site systems are usually smaller than permanent builds, and most jobs land between $3,000 and $15,000 depending on how many gates, material laydowns and towers need eyes. See the CCTV cost guide.

Before there is power or internet

Coverage does not have to wait for permanent service. Cameras can run on temporary power with cellular uplink, then move to the permanent network when the building energizes.

Copper, tools and fuel

Losses on LA sites cluster at the gate, the material laydown, the fuel and generator area and the copper. Those four get covered first.

It moves when you move

Equipment can be planned so it comes down at closeout and redeploys to the next site instead of being written off with the job.

Property-type + service intent

A page built for construction sites and active jobs looking for cctv installation

Construction sites need a different surveillance approach than finished buildings. Temporary power, changing layouts, site access, equipment storage and remote oversight all influence the camera strategy.

This page supports the construction site + CCTV search where the buyer needs flexible jobsite visibility and a path that can evolve as the project advances.

Coverage strategy

Entries, cash points, docks, yards, hallways and blind spots are prioritized by risk.

Retention & searchability

Recording windows, event filters and playback workflows are defined before storage decisions are made.

Network & power

Switching, PoE budgets, cable paths and remote access are accounted for early.

Operations fit

The system is shaped around how managers, homeowners or teams will actually use live and recorded video.

Why this page exists

What cctv installation should solve for construction sites and active jobs

The best cctv installation plan for construction sites and active jobs has to reflect the operating realities of that environment, not just a generic service checklist.

  • Coverage built around deterrence, verification, searchability and incident review
  • Storage and retention sized to match compliance or operational needs
  • Network, power and cabling planned to keep the system stable over time
  • A camera map that supports how people will actually manage footage

Best fit

Ground-up construction, tenant improvements, major remodels, active estates and phased development sites.

Often paired with

Temporary alarm workflows, gate access, remote checks and a migration plan into the permanent system.

The next step

Tell us the gate, the laydown and the closeout date.

A construction camera plan is a schedule problem as much as a security problem. Tell us how the site changes over the next few months and we will design coverage that survives the changes instead of being rebuilt three times.

STEP 1

You call or text

Tell us what you want to see. A driveway, a front door, a register, a loading gate. That call takes about ten minutes and you are talking to the people who plan the system, not a call center.

STEP 2

We come look. Free.

We walk the property, check the network and the power, and map what actually needs coverage. We will also tell you where we would not spend your money.

STEP 3

You get it in writing

Scope, camera placement and price, in writing, before anything is ordered. No deposit is needed to get the number.

“I do not want a surprise number.”

A typical 4-camera home system runs about $2,000 to $4,500 installed. An 8 to 16 camera commercial site runs $8,000 to $25,000 and up. You get a written price before any work starts. Full ranges are in the CCTV cost guide.

“I do not want to be upsold.”

We say out loud which cameras you do not need. Starting with the highest priority areas and adding more later is normal here, not a problem.

“We have no permanent power or internet yet.”

That is the normal starting condition. Temporary power and a cellular uplink cover the early phases, and the system transitions to permanent power and network when the building is ready.

“We move to a different site in a few months.”

Then the system should be planned to be recovered, not abandoned. We can specify mounts and equipment that come down cleanly and go up again at the next job.

“Who is actually coming to my property?”

A licensed California ACO 7755 and C-10 contractor, insured and bonded, working in Los Angeles since 2016. You can verify the license before you book. Check it with the State.

“How soon can someone look at it?”

Same-day response. If it is urgent, say so when you call and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.

“Who else can see my video?”

By default the recording stays on equipment at your property and the footage is yours. We do not need to watch your cameras to support them.

“What happens when something breaks in two years?”

We service what we install. We also take over systems other companies walked away from, so you are not stuck if an installer disappears. See service and repair.

Free. About 10 minutes. No obligation. English and Spanish. Licensed California ACO 7755 and C-10, insured and bonded since 2016. Check it with the State.
