Why has my night vision suddenly got worse?

This is usually down to a dirty or misted lens, IR LEDs starting to fail, or infrared reflecting off something newly close to the camera such as foliage or a spider's web. It's a common fault we can usually diagnose and fix on the same visit.

Do you work on systems you didn't originally install?

Yes, most of the CCTV repair work we do is on systems fitted by someone else, including ones inherited with a property. We diagnose whatever is there and repair it where that is realistically possible.

How much does CCTV repair typically cost?

It depends entirely on the fault – a camera or cabling repair is usually a smaller job than a recorder replacement. We give a free, no-obligation quote after a site visit so you know the actual cost before agreeing to anything.

Can you fix a CCTV system across multiple business sites?

Yes, we work on domestic and commercial systems across our coverage area and can arrange repairs or a servicing schedule across more than one site.

What happens if you diagnose a fault and it turns out to need a full replacement?

We'll explain why, in plain terms and quote for replacement separately – you're never committed to a bigger job than the one you asked for.

Domestic & Commercial CCTV Repair – Sevenoaks

CCTV Repair & Maintenance in Sevenoaks, Kent

Request a survey

Cold snaps, driving rain and the damp that sits around through a Kent winter are hard on outdoor CCTV. Cable glands let in moisture, camera housings that seemed fine in summer start to mist up and DVRs that have been running hot in a cupboard all year can start dropping out once the weather turns.

If your cameras have started cutting out, showing a blurred or foggy image, or losing connection since the weather changed, that is a common pattern we see and usually a repairable one – not necessarily a sign you need a new system.

Servicing and maintenance pricing

Regular servicing is priced separately from one-off repairs and typically covers a check of every camera, the recorder, cabling condition and remote access, catching small issues before they become failures.

Single annual service visit

from around £90

Twice-yearly service plan (per visit)

from around £75

Additional camera check (per unit, on a service visit)

typically £10–£20

Firmware and remote access check

typically included in a service visit

CCTV faults on Victorian and Edwardian terraces

High house prices relative to much of west Kent Older terraces in Sevenoaks often have CCTV cabling routed through party walls, under floorboards or along original brick reveals, sometimes added by more than one previous occupant over the years. Cable runs like this are more prone to being nicked, chafed or simply forgotten about and tracing a fault back through them takes patience.
Cameras on solid brick or render fixings from decades of repointing can also work loose or have their sealant fail, letting damp into the housing – a common cause of a camera that has slowly gone misty or stopped focusing properly.

What a proper repair gets you back

The aim of any CCTV repair or service visit is a system that does what it is supposed to: clear footage, reliable recording with no gaps, a recorder that stores and plays back what it should and remote access on your phone or app that actually connects when you need it.

We test all of that before we consider the job finished – not just that the camera shows a picture on the monitor, but that it is recording, storing and accessible the way the system was designed to work.

Cameras – dome, bullet and turret

Replacement cameras are matched to the existing system's resolution and connection type wherever possible and fitted to manufacturer specification so the housing, sealing and mounting hold up to being outdoors long-term.
