CCTV installers and repair engineers in Cobham
Cobham and Oxshott have some of the largest private homes we protect, many behind electric gates on long, tree-lined drives. Our CCTV engineers cover the gate, the full length of the drive, every door, the garages and the pool or garden buildings, usually with colour night vision so a face or a car is clear after dark.
Gate cameras can be linked to the intercom, so you see who is calling on your phone before you let them in. Shops and restaurants on the High Street want doors, tills and stockrooms covered, with signs and recording set up for a business.
Cobham has some of the largest homes we protect, many behind electric gates on long drives. Repairs are often cameras at the far end of the drive that fail because of long cable runs and damp joints, and gate cameras that need relinking to the intercom.
The cameras we fit in Cobham
No single camera suits every wall. Every camera is chosen for its own spot, then record them all on one recorder in your home or premises.
- Dome
- Low profile and hard to tamper with. Suits porches, ceilings, shop floors and shared hallways in blocks of flats.
- Bullet
- Obvious on purpose, which puts people off. Reaches further down a long drive, a yard or a car park.
- Varifocal
- The engineer adjusts the lens on site to frame a face at the gate or a number plate far down the drive.
- Colour night vision
- Uses a little light to record in colour after dark, so you can tell a red coat from a blue one.
Resolution runs from 4MP to 4K, matched to the job, all recorded on a network video recorder (NVR) with viewing on your phone set up as standard.
The properties we protect in Cobham
Every camera plan begins at the gate, the path and the door, the routes a visitor or intruder would take. These are the Cobham properties we fit cameras to most.

Large houses with drives in Cobham
Gates, long drives and outbuildings covered in colour at night, and a plate-reading camera on the way in if you want vehicles logged.

Period homes in Cobham
Small, neutral-coloured cameras fixed along existing lines on old brick, plus a video doorbell that suits a traditional front door.

Farms, yards and rural sites in Cobham
Yards, barns and field gates linked back to the house by buried cable or a point-to-point radio link, with night vision for ground that has no street lights.

Shops and businesses in Cobham
Doors, tills and stockrooms covered, with signage and recording set up to meet data protection rules for a business.

Front door, drive and side gate covered, so your mobile pings the moment anyone approaches the house, and the clip is kept for you.

Cameras on the entrance, bin store and bike shed, with footage the managing agent can reach and residents’ windows kept out of shot.
CCTV cameras playing up in Cobham?
We repair and upgrade systems whoever fitted them. Tap the problem to see what usually causes it in Cobham homes and businesses.
Some cameras show a black screen
- Likely cause
- One power supply or network switch has failed and taken a group of cameras down with it.
- What our engineer does
- We test each feed, replace the failed unit and check every camera comes back.
The app won’t connect any more
- Likely cause
- Usually a new broadband router has changed the network the recorder relies on.
- What our engineer does
- Reconnect the recorder, update it, and test viewing on mobile data from outside.
One camera keeps dropping out
- Likely cause
- Water in an outdoor joint that was never sealed, or cable damaged by weather or animals.
- What our engineer does
- Reseal or replace the joint or cable, or switch that camera to a wireless link.
An old system with grainy pictures
- Likely cause
- Analogue cameras from years ago. The cable is often still fine.
- What our engineer does
- Reuse your existing cable to fit HD cameras and a new recorder, without a full rewire.
On big Cobham properties the camera at the far end of the drive is usually the first to fail, because of long cable runs and damp joints. We test the run, reseal or replace it, or switch that camera to a wireless link.
Cobham CCTV questions
Do you fit CCTV across Cobham?
Yes, homes and businesses all over Cobham, including Cobham village, Fairmile, Stoke d’Abernon, Downside, Church Cobham and Oxshott.
How many cameras does a house need?
Two to four covers most houses: the front door, the drive, any side path and the back garden. The planner above gives you a feel for your own.
Is there an app for the cameras?
There is. Before our engineer packs up, the viewing app goes onto your mobile and any family mobiles you name, and you get a quick lesson in rewinding footage and saving a clip for the police or insurer.
Is it all right if a camera sees the pavement?
Filming past your boundary is allowed, but it brings data protection duties with it. Each view gets pointed, and where needed blanked out in the software, so it stays on your land, and we talk you through the rules where a bit of street can’t be helped.
Do you repair CCTV in Cobham as well as fit it?
Yes. Repairs are a big part of our Cobham work: dead cameras, recorders that have stopped saving, night pictures gone white and apps that won’t connect. We find the failed part and fix that rather than selling you a new system.
How long is footage kept?
As long as the recorder’s storage allows, typically a few weeks for a home system. Businesses should set a fixed period and delete after it, and we set that up for you.
