Do you need security at your job site?

Factually, most construction firms do not consider security when planning a job site. Many have started to budget in loss costs associated with the increasing theft & vandalism rate that is on the rise in the industry today. However, many smaller general contractors have never considered security before. That is until they experience a major loss due to theft.

Lets look at the facts:

* In South Carolina during 2004 there were over 70,000 thefts of heavy equipment alone!
* 80 % of those thefts were never recovered.
* The N.E.R. statistics recorded $1 billion worth of hand tools, heavy equipment and other construction related equipment stolen each year!
* You pay for these thefts TWICE, first with the initial loss and thru increasing insurance costs each year.


Why use our services?

Law enforcement agencies are not staffed to sit on your job site and wait for a theft to happen. When a theft does get noticed, it is usually Monday morning and too late for any Police officer to do anything but write a report.

Construction Security Services provides on site, immediate protection and we specialize in locating stolen heavy equipment...in fact we are the only security service in the southeastern United States that does!



ALL THEFTS ARE PREVENTABLE!

Construction Security Services is a highly experienced security provider to construction sites dedicated to one thing...the protection of the construction work site. We are licensed by the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division and have the same authority as any sheriff deputy in the state of South Carolina. This means that we can be proactive and STOP any person or persons on the spot, who attempts to commit theft from your site!

This isn't just another "security guard" service!

So, whats the difference you ask? Plenty! A security guard has no authority other than to pick up the phone and call local law enforcement while watching your equipment roll down the road! A Security Officer is a licensed professional with a verified background in either law enforcement or a military career field related to police services or security police.

Make no mistake about it, Construction Security Services is a highly professional security service specializing in construction site protection.
