🧯 What Are Fire Watch Services?
Fire watch services are specialized security operations that involve trained guards patrolling and monitoring buildings, construction sites, or commercial facilities for potential fire hazards—especially when fire safety systems like sprinklers or alarms are non-functional or under repair.
Whether due to construction, renovation, or an unexpected system failure, fire watch guards are essential for preventing catastrophe and ensuring compliance with local fire codes and OSHA regulations.
❓ Do I Need Fire Watch Services?
If you’re asking this question, there’s a strong chance that yes—you do need fire watch services, especially if any of the following apply:
🚫 Your Fire Alarm or Sprinkler System Is Down
Fire marshals often require 24/7 fire watch patrols until your fire protection systems are restored.
🏗️ You’re Managing a Construction Site
Florida law mandates fire watch coverage for many construction zones—especially if there’s welding, fuel storage, or flammable materials involved.
🏢 You’re a Property Manager or Hotel Operator
High-rise buildings, hotels, and healthcare facilities must often hire fire watch guards to avoid fines or forced shutdowns.
⚠️ You’ve Received a Notice of Violation
If your local fire marshal has issued a citation or compliance notice, immediate fire watch staffing may be legally required to keep your business open.
