How many cameras does a Hitchin house need?
Most homes are well covered by three or four cameras. We walk round with you and leave out any that would not add much.

Knowing Hitchin before we fit a camera
The right camera plan depends on the building and the street. This is what we take into account in Hitchin.
Medieval market town
Hitchin's historic core around Market Place, Sun Street, Bancroft and the Churchyard is largely Tudor, Georgian and listed. The Victorian and Edwardian residential streets up Bedford Road, Walsworth Road and Cambridge Road are substantial commuter housing. Purwell, Westmill and Oughton are post-war estate. SG4 villages run out to the Chilterns escarpment.
Conservation and listed buildings
The Hitchin conservation area is one of the largest in North Herts, covering Market Place, Sun Street, Bancroft, the Churchyard and parts of Tilehouse Street. Many properties are Grade II or Grade II* listed. We use small cameras, reversible fixings and colour-matched cable here, and tell you before we start if consent might be needed.
SG4 and SG5 coverage
SG5 town centre, Walsworth, Westmill, Oughton Head, Purwell, Ickleford. SG4 Highbury, Charlton, Lucas Lane, Pirton, Great Offley, Preston, Kings Walden and the Chilterns-edge villages. Same-day surveys whenever we can fit them in.
CCTV we install and repair in Hitchin

Home CCTV in Hitchin
Two to eight 4K cameras covering the front door, drive, side gate and garden, with colour night vision and alerts on your phone.
Business CCTV
Shops, offices, yards and warehouses, with evidence-quality footage, longer recording and signage advice.
CCTV repairs
Dead cameras, a recorder that will not start, a full hard drive or an app that stopped working. We fix most systems, whoever fitted them.
Doorbell cameras
A wired video doorbell that never needs charging, shown in the same app as your cameras.
Upgrading old CCTV
If the cable is sound, new cameras and a new recorder can run on it, with a far sharper picture.
Watching on your phone
We install the app, add every family member or staff phone, and set the alerts so the cat and the bin lorry do not trigger them.

Most home systems are planned, fitted and handed over in a single day.
Photos or a survey
We look at the property with you, in person or from photos, and mark each camera position.
