CONSTRUCTION & HOUSEBUILDINGSECURITY IN DURHAM
Looking for specialist construction & housebuilding security in Durham? Xtreme Protection delivers sector-trained, SIA-licensed security teams across Durham and the wider County Durham area, including Gilesgate, Framwellgate Moor, Belmont and Neville's Cross. Construction theft, vandalism and trespass cost the UK industry an estimated £800 million every year — alongside project delays, insurance hikes and safety liabilities. We protect sites from groundworks to handover with gatehouse teams, out-of-hours guards, K9 units and rapid-deployment monitored CCTV towers.
The construction threat model is unique: high-value plant and materials sitting in open, changing environments with hundreds of weekly vehicle and operative movements. Our construction security starts at the gate — CSCS-checked officers verifying every person, vehicle and delivery — and extends to perimeter patrols, fuel and plant protection, and monitored camera towers that challenge intruders by live audio before they breach the fence line.
Our Durham construction & housebuilding teams combine genuine local knowledge of County Durham with sector-specific training — officers briefed on your industry's risks, regulations and culture, backed by our 24/7 UK command centre and verified digital reporting on every shift.

How We Protect Construction & Housebuilding Sites in Durham
We scale with your programme: full gatehouse teams during peak phases, patrol-and-CCTV blends during quieter periods, and vacant property protection between phases or after practical completion. Every contract includes insurer-friendly documentation — verified patrol logs, incident reports and photographic evidence that keep your cover valid and your premiums defensible.
In Durham, that approach means site surveys that account for local crime patterns across Gilesgate, Framwellgate Moor and Belmont, relationships with County Durham police liaison teams, and officers who already know the North East England landscape before their first shift.

Zero plant theft in 14 months
A 240-home development was losing fuel, tools and copper weekly. A gatehouse team, monitored CCTV towers and weekend K9 patrols ended losses entirely within the first month.
“The gatehouse discipline alone paid for itself within a month.”
