Your fire alarm or sprinkler system is out of service
You’re performing hot work (welding, cutting, brazing)
You’re under order from the FDNY or Fire Marshal
You’re running an event or construction site with elevated fire risks
There is an insurance requirement for coverage compliance

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.
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.
A typical private fire watch company can charge $35-50+ 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.
