Rapid response. Round-the-clock reassurance.
When it comes to fire safety, there’s no room for uncertainty.
We provide trained fire marshals to monitor residential and commercial buildings 24/7 — giving landlords, local authorities, and managing agents the confidence that their people are protected, and their duty of care is covered.
What Is Waking Watch?
Waking Watch involves having trained personnel patrol all areas of a building — inside and out — at regular intervals, day and night.
Our fire marshals are always alert, always ready. They’re trained to:
- Spot signs of smoke or fire early
- Follow a clear evacuation plan
- Raise the alarm and guide residents or staff to safety
- Work alongside on-site fire systems to reduce risk and improve response time
Waking Watch is most often used in buildings where a fire alarm system is absent, faulty, or undergoing repair — but we can also support short-term risk mitigation or ongoing compliance requirements.
How Our Service Works
Every site is different. So before we start, we carry out a full assessment to:
- Understand the layout and usage of your building
- Identify any current fire risks or vulnerable areas
- Design a patrol plan that covers all floors and priority zones
From there, we assign experienced fire marshals who are fully briefed and ready to respond — calmly and professionally.
