01 — Service overview

Construction Security

A construction site is an open, changing environment holding a great deal of value. Plant, tools, copper, cabling and raw materials all sit exposed, often behind nothing more than a temporary fence, and the workforce changes daily as trades come and go.

MavCo Security provides premium security services for construction sites, offering a range of customisable options to suit your specific needs. Our personnel are equipped with the latest technology and techniques to deter theft, vandalism and unauthorised access from the first day on site to handover.

02 — Why it matters

What an unsecured site actually costs

The direct loss from an overnight theft is rarely the real cost. Replacing stolen plant takes days. A stripped cable run means rework. An insurance claim raises next year's premium. And every one of those delays pushes against a programme that was already tight.

There is a safety dimension too. An open site is a hazard to anyone who wanders onto it, and uncontrolled access puts both your workforce and members of the public at risk — along with the legal exposure that follows.

We work with developers, contractors and site managers to put proportionate, well-documented security in place: enough presence to deter, enough control to account for who is on site, and enough reporting that you can see what happened overnight without having to ask.

03 — What we provide

What we provide

/01

Manned Site Guarding

SIA licensed officers providing a visible, uniformed presence on your site. Our guards manage access, carry out patrols and respond to incidents as they happen rather than reporting them the next morning.

  • Static and mobile guarding
  • Day, night, weekend and bank holiday cover
  • Trained in site safety and site rules
  • Daily occurrence reports and shift handover

/02

Site Access Control

Every entry and exit managed, so only authorised workers, subcontractors and approved visitors get on site — and you have a record of who was there and when.

  • ID and contractor verification
  • Workforce and visitor management
  • Vehicle and delivery access control
  • Site register and visitor log management

/03

Perimeter Patrols

Continuous boundary protection through scheduled and unannounced patrols, fence-line checks and gate inspections, identifying weak points before anyone else does.

  • Scheduled and random patrol patterns
  • Gate securing and inspection
  • Fence-line and boundary checks
  • Intrusion detection and response

/04

Out-of-Hours & Overnight Cover

The highest-risk window on any site is the one nobody is watching. We provide dedicated overnight and weekend cover for the hours when your site sits empty.

  • Overnight static and patrol cover
  • Weekend and shutdown-period cover
  • Response to alarm and intrusion
  • Morning handover to site management

/05

Plant & Material Protection

Machinery, tools and materials protected through regular physical patrols, supervision of storage areas and clear reporting, reducing both opportunistic and organised theft.

  • Patrols logged and timed
  • Controlled storage area supervision
  • Anti-vandalism measures
  • Stock and delivery support

/06

Fire Marshal & Safety Support

Construction carries a heightened fire risk from hot works, flammable stores and temporary structures. Our trained fire marshals can work alongside the security team or as a standalone provision.

  • Hot works monitoring
  • Flammable material storage checks
  • Evacuation assistance and roll call
  • Fire route and extinguisher checks
