Construction site security in Sacramento — FAQ
What does construction site security cost in Sacramento?+
Mobile patrol typically runs $15 per tour (multiple randomized visits per night). Static overnight guards run $26–$34/hr depending on shift length, scope, and number of access points. Most active jobsites in Greater Sacramento use a blended plan: nightly mobile patrol with on-call escalation, scaled up to static during high-value material delivery windows.
What's the #1 theft target on Sacramento jobsites right now?+
Copper wire, catalytic converters off subcontractor trucks, and unsecured power tools. Lumber theft has also climbed since 2024 — full bunks staged on the perimeter are the easiest grab. A randomized patrol cadence and photo-verified arrival logs are what break the thief's plan.
Do you cover Folsom, Roseville, Rancho Cordova, Elk Grove and Natomas jobsites?+
Yes. We patrol every active sub-market in the Sacramento metro — Folsom, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, Rancho Cordova, Elk Grove, Citrus Heights, Natomas, West Sacramento, Davis and the I-5 / Hwy-99 / Hwy-50 corridors. Coverage is GPS-logged and visible on the client portal.
Is your patrol armed?+
No — Stormhammer is unarmed by policy and CA BSIS-licensed (PPO #121830). For construction sites, unarmed mobile patrol is the right tool: it deters opportunistic theft, documents incidents, and escalates to Sacramento PD without the insurance and liability exposure of armed coverage.
Can you start tonight on a Sacramento jobsite?+
Usually yes for mobile patrol — most new clients are on the route the same evening they call. Static overnight coverage typically starts within 24–72 hours depending on guard scheduling.
Will OSHA, my GC, or my insurer accept your reports?+
Yes. Every tour generates a timestamped, GPS-tagged, photo-verified PDF report routed to your designated contacts. Reports are board-ready and accepted by general contractors, sureties, and insurance carriers in California.
