Understanding Fire Watch Services

What Are Fire Watch Services?

Fire watch services involve a team of trained professionals who monitor a building or area for signs of fire. These services are especially critical when fire alarm systems or sprinkler systems are temporarily unavailable or during activities that pose a higher risk of fire, such as hot work (welding, cutting, etc.). Fire watch guards are responsible for detecting fire hazards, responding to emergencies, and ensuring compliance with local fire codes.

  • Hot Work Activities: During construction or industrial work involving open flames or sparks.
  • Special Events: Large gatherings where fire risks increase and additional safety measures are needed.
  • Code Compliance: To meet local fire safety regulations and avoid fines.

A Day in the Life of a Fire Watch Guard

One of our guards, Sarah, shared her experience from a recent assignment at a high-rise undergoing renovations. “During a routine patrol, I noticed sparks from a welding area that could easily ignite nearby materials. By acting quickly, we prevented a potential fire. It’s about being vigilant and proactive,” she explained. This story underscores the value of having trained professionals on-site.

What Exactly is FireWatch?

In short, a Fire Watch Guard is a provisional arrangement in which a person or patrol physically checks buildings and/or other property for extreme fire hazard situations.

Fire Watches are normally conducted when the probabilities of a fire-related incident are high. For example, whenever ‘hot work’ construction processes are taking place on-site (common ‘hot work’ processes are welding, soldering, flame-cutting, riveting and brazing). Another typical ‘high-probability’ example would be in the case of malfunctioning alarm and/or sprinkler systems.

What Do FireWatch Teams Do in california?

The duties of fire protection personnel may vary between jobs and location sites, but there are basic tasks that come with each position. In the course of their duties, our trained personnel, (who are familiarized with the layout), will check all exits and fire extinguishers. They will have on their person, the materials necessary to execute a fast evacuation and to notify any other occupants in the event of a fire. In most cases, Fast Guard’s personnel would also carry a portable horn, a flashlight, a full all-access set of keys to the premises, writing materials, and a copy of their specific duties.

How Much Does Fire Watch Cost?

A typical private fire watch company can charge $55-75+ per hour depending on the location and if it’s an emergency. If the Fire Marshall has to staff the occupancy, he usually charges upwards of $200 per hour because he will be using fire department personnel and would have to pay overtime etc.
