Professional CCTV Maintenance & Service for Unwavering Property Security

When it comes to the security of your property, your CCTV system plays a crucial role. At OC Services, we understand that you rely on it to protect what matters most, and ensuring its optimal performance is our top priority. While current British Standards don't always mandate a maintenance contract, we firmly believe that regular, professional care is not just beneficial – it's essential for complete peace of mind.

Why is CCTV Maintenance So Important?


Think of your CCTV system like any other valuable asset; consistent upkeep is key to its longevity and effectiveness. Without it, you could be unknowingly compromising your security. Here's why regular maintenance with OC Services makes all the difference:


1. Uninterrupted Protection:


We identify and resolve minor issues before they can escalate into critical malfunctions, ensuring your property is always under vigilant watch.


2. Extended System Lifespan


Proactive care significantly boosts the lifespan of your cameras and recording equipment, saving you from the hassle and expense of early replacements.


3. Early Detection, Swift Solutions


Our expert engineers can spot subtle faults, like misaligned cameras, degraded cables, or minor software glitches, and fix them during routine checks.


4. Cost-Effective Security


Preventing problems is always more economical than fixing them. Our maintenance contracts help you avoid costly emergency repairs and extensive system overhauls.


5. Guaranteed Peace of Mind:


Knowing your system is regularly inspected, fully operational, and compliant with relevant standards (which many insurance policies require) allows you to focus on your day, confident in your property's security.

How Often Should Your System Be Serviced?


The ideal frequency for maintenance depends on how your CCTV system is set up:

  • Systems with Police Response: To comply with police response criteria, a comprehensive service must be performed every six months.
  • Professionally Monitored Systems: These require at least one thorough maintenance visit per year.
  • Our General Recommendation: At OC Services, we recommend an annual check-up as a minimum for all CCTV systems. This crucial preventative measure helps avoid critical failures, such as discovering lost footage exactly when you need it most.
