Overnight Construction Site & Industrial Asset Protection Patrols in Sacramento & Placer County

Coverage is billed flat at $28-$45 per officer hour, quoted in writing before an officer deploys. Where it lands in that range depends on whether you need a standing post, mobile patrol through the site, or both, and how many hours per night the job actually needs. We work out the specifics during a short walkthrough or phone call, not by guessing at a package price over the phone.

The most effective step is unpredictable, documented overnight coverage during the rough-in to drywall window, when wire and spooled cable are staged in the open. Mobile officers vary their route and timing through electrical rooms and staging areas, and material counts logged at shift start and end mean a shortage is tied to a specific night. We cannot guarantee zero theft, but a visible, logged patrol changes the calculation for anyone scouting the site.

They solve different problems. Cameras record what happened after the fact, if they were not disabled or stolen along with everything else. An officer on site can intervene by calling 911 immediately and can check things a camera cannot see, like whether a fence panel has been lifted or a trailer seal replaced. Most sites we work get the most value from patrol plus whatever cameras the GC already has, not one instead of the other.

On sites without a finished perimeter, mobile patrol usually works better than a fixed post, because an officer can cover the full open footprint of the lot rather than one gate. We log material counts at the start and end of each shift and flag any breach point in the temporary fencing so it gets addressed before it becomes a repeat entry point.

Yes. Laydown yards and staging lots that are unpaved, unlit or only partially fenced are common in Rancho Cordova, Rocklin and Placer County, and mobile patrol is typically the right fit for them. Passes are GPS-verified and timestamped so the superintendent gets a real record of when the lot was checked, and officers specifically check fence lines, gate hardware and equipment for signs of tampering.

Officers call 911 first. They do not detain, chase, physically confront, or attempt to search anyone — that is outside what a private security officer is legally permitted to do in California. Officers document what they observed from a safe distance: vehicle description, direction of travel, what was taken, and time. That documentation goes to law enforcement and into the written report for your insurer.

Usually, yes. Dispatch is live 24/7 and same-night deployment is routine, including calls that come in on a Friday afternoon for weekend coverage. We will still want a few minutes on the phone or a quick walkthrough to understand the site layout, what needs to be covered, and what phase the job is in before an officer arrives.

Each shift produces a written log covering the times an officer was on site, the route walked or driven, material and equipment counts at start and end of shift, anything unusual observed, and photos of key staging areas, gates and fence lines. It is built to be handed directly to your insurer or the GC if a loss occurs, not just an internal note.

We cover jobsites throughout the Sacramento region and Placer County, including Roseville, Rocklin, Loomis, Auburn and unincorporated county sites, on the same flat hourly rate and reporting standard we use in Sacramento, Citrus Heights and Rancho Cordova.

It depends on the phase of the job. During material delivery, rough MEP work and equipment mobilization, most sites need either a standing overnight post or frequent mobile passes through the night. Once the building is closed in and materials are locked inside, coverage can often scale back to fewer passes or spot coverage around deliveries. We size it to the actual risk during the first walkthrough rather than selling a flat package that does not match the job.
