Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When is a fire watch security guard required in Surrey, BC?
A: A fire watch security guard is required in Surrey, BC under the BC Fire Code when a building’s fire protection system — including sprinklers, fire alarm systems, or fire suppression equipment — is out of service for more than four consecutive hours in a 24-hour period. The building owner or occupant must immediately notify the local fire department and implement a fire watch. A fire watch guard must physically patrol the building at regular intervals, check all areas normally covered by the impaired system, and maintain a written compliance log. Eagle Eye Security deploys fire watch guards rapidly for both planned maintenance windows and emergency system failures.
Q: What does a fire watch guard do during a shift in Surrey?
A: During a fire watch shift in Surrey, the Eagle Eye Security guard conducts regular walkthroughs of all building areas — typically every 15 to 30 minutes as specified by the fire authority having jurisdiction. The guard checks for smoke, heat, unusual odours, blocked exits, and any conditions that could indicate a fire risk. Every patrol is logged with a timestamp and area check record. If the guard detects a threat, they immediately contact the fire department and sound available alarms. A compliance log is maintained throughout the watch and provided to the building owner at the end of the deployment.
Q: How quickly can Eagle Eye Security deploy a fire watch guard in Surrey?
A: Eagle Eye Security treats fire watch requests as urgent because of the BC Fire Code compliance timeline. For Surrey properties, we aim to have a licensed fire watch guard on-site within two to four hours of your call. If your fire protection system has gone offline unexpectedly, call us immediately at (778) 899-1576 — our Surrey-based dispatch can mobilize faster than companies staging from other municipalities. We are available 24 hours a day for emergency fire watch deployment.
Q: Does fire watch apply to construction sites in Surrey, BC?
A: Yes. Active construction sites in Surrey where permanent fire protection systems have not yet been installed or commissioned may require fire watch coverage depending on the stage of construction, presence of combustible materials, and requirements set by the local authority having jurisdiction. Surrey Fire Services and the BC Fire Code provide specific requirements for construction site fire safety. Eagle Eye Security provides fire watch guards for construction sites throughout Surrey and Greater Vancouver and can assist with understanding the specific requirements for your project stage.
Q: What documentation does a fire watch guard provide in BC?
A: Eagle Eye Security fire watch guards maintain a patrol log documenting the exact time of each building inspection, specific areas checked, any hazards or observations noted, and the guard’s name and license number. This log serves as your evidence of compliance with the BC Fire Code fire watch requirement and can be presented to Surrey Fire Services, your building insurer, or property management. A summary report is provided at the end of each fire watch deployment. These records are particularly important if the fire authority conducts an inspection during the watch period.
Q: How much does a fire watch guard cost in Surrey, BC?
A: Fire watch guard costs in Surrey, BC are typically priced by the hour with a minimum engagement period. Rates are similar to static guard rates — generally in the $28 to $45 per hour range depending on the size of the building, the complexity of the patrol route, and whether the deployment is planned or emergency. Emergency fire watch deployments may carry a mobilization fee due to the urgency of dispatch. Eagle Eye Security provides transparent pricing — call (778) 899-1576 for a quote specific to your property and situation.
