How much does CCTV installation cost in Wexford?
Pricing depends on what the job requires – and in Wexford, that varies considerably. A residential installation in a semi-detached house in New Ross has different requirements from a farmyard setup outside Enniscorthy, which in turn differs from a multi-camera commercial system on an industrial site in Gorey.
The main variables include: the number of cameras, the type of recording equipment (DVR vs NVR, local vs cloud storage), whether remote access is required, cable routing complexity, and whether ongoing professional monitoring is included. IP systems with HD resolution and remote viewing involve different cost considerations from a basic local-recording setup.
We do not publish standard price lists because a fixed-price menu does not reflect how real security systems are specified. Instead, we carry out a free, no-obligation site survey – you get a clear picture of what your property needs, what it will cover, and what it will cost, before any commitment is required.
How long does a CCTV installation take?
For a standard residential installation – typically four to eight cameras covering the perimeter of a house – we usually complete the work in a single day. A larger commercial system with more cameras, longer cable runs, or integration with existing alarm or access control infrastructure will take longer. We give you a realistic timeframe as part of the site survey, before any work begins.
What happens after installation – do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes. We offer ongoing maintenance and support for all systems we install. If a camera fails, a recording issue develops, or you want to expand your system at a later stage, we are the point of contact. Having one company responsible for the full lifecycle of your CCTV system – from installation through to ongoing maintenance – means there is no ambiguity about who to call when something needs attention.
Do I need planning permission to install CCTV cameras on my property in Wexford?
In most cases, no. CCTV cameras are generally considered exempt development under Irish planning regulations, meaning planning permission is not required for standard residential or commercial installations. However, there are exceptions – protected structures, certain commercial premises, and cameras mounted in specific ways may require consent. If your property falls into any of these categories, we will flag it during the site survey. We are familiar with the local planning context in Wexford and can advise accordingly.
What am I legally allowed to record with CCTV on my property?
CCTV is legal in Ireland, but it must comply with data protection law. At home, your cameras should cover your own property – entrances, driveway, garden and outbuildings. They should not be aimed at a neighbour’s house or garden, and you cannot access a neighbour’s footage without their permission. If a camera captures a public footpath or road beyond what is strictly necessary, GDPR obligations apply. Businesses must also display visible signage, document the purpose of the system and set a retention period for recordings. We plan camera angles with this in mind during every site survey – for more detail, read our guide to domestic CCTV laws in Ireland.
How quickly can your monitoring team respond to an alert, and what do they do?
When a camera detects activity on your property, our monitoring station receives the alert in real time – typically within seconds. The response depends on what the footage shows: operators can contact you directly, alert An Garda Síochána, or trigger an on-site alarm. For commercial and industrial clients in Wexford, this means that an incident outside staffed hours does not go unnoticed until the next morning – someone is watching and acting on it immediately.
