Upgrade to Alarm and replacement of CCTV
Used Chris to install our old Alarm system 9 years ago, only wanted to upgrade to IP rather than old phone line connection, also wanted 4 new cameras to replace the ones I put up myself 9 years ago with cabling allover the outside of the house. Chris Upgraded the Alarm, and fitted a brand new system - hiding all of the cables in the wall, repairing the mortar where he drilled in to a point I could not see it. Even filled the holes in the brickwork where I had fitted my old cameras, almost invisible to me, and anyone else would just not be able to spot the old holes. Always cleaned up after, with his own vacuum cleaner, which is always a good thing. Turned up when he said, communicated and explained systems well. All in all could not fault the work, and outcome - Thanks !

Upgrade of existing security system
We had an old working alarm and cctv system which was in desperate need of an upgrade. We contacted Chris and explained our needs and wants. From quote to job completion Chris was very professional, knowledgeable and approachable. Everything was explained, making sure we were happy with the work carried out in a timely manner. Highly Recommended

CCTV
I contacted Chris for a quote and he was very responsive and helpful. When first wanting to install CCTV, I had an idea of what I wanted but not 100% sure. Chris helped in explaining the pros and cons of what he has to offer and was very flexible in arranging a time that suits us best. The installation itself didn’t take too long and both the CCTV cameras themselves and system was all explained to us clearly and simply, with Chris being both very professional and approachable. The system wasn’t cheap but it is future proof, the best quality and a massive peace of mind knowing I can access it through my phone anywhere I go. Id definitely say it was worth every penny.

CCTV installed
Chris installed a CCTV camera on my driveway. Took the time beforehand to explain my options before I decided to go ahead. He arrived on time, was very thorough and very tidy, always keeping me informed during the installation eg turning the power off. The camera is unobtrusive and gives extremely good pictures. I asked lots of questions before during and after installation and Chris was happy to answer them. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris in the future.

Chris did a fantastic job installing CCTV. He was punctual, tidy, friendly and totally professional. He talked me through everything he was going to do. He was extremely efficient and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. In fact, I have done and my friend has had work done too. Thanks Chris.

We had an issue with the alarm that came with our new build property. Chris was able to troubleshoot and talk me through the fix remotely when I first contacted him. Amazing service and very friendly.

Great alarm company
Chris provided a quote within days of my request. I had to delay work due to delays in moving into my new house but he refused to take any money from me until he had completed all work. He has now completed it in one day rather than two (considerately staying late to get done as I have my first night in the house tonight so he wanted me to feel safe). His work was totally efficient, clean and tidy. Very professional and a great system. Highly recommended.

Security Cameras Installation
Chris came out initially for a site survey, and his recommendations were straightforward without attempting to install unnecessary equipment. Excellent communication throughout. Work was carried out to the agreed spec and schedule without a hitch, very clean and tidy, no cables visible indoors. He oversaw the installation of the support phone app, and all explanations were clear and concise, and we are both delighted with the outcome. Couldn't ask for more.

Excellent job!
Chris fitted an alarm and cameras to our house and we have nothing but praise for him and for the quality of the work he carried out. He was quick to respond to our initial enquiry and to quote and complete the installation. We liked the fact that he gave a lot of thought to what would work best for us and he always found a solution to any challenges that arose. He gave us excellent advice and guidance and was very helpful with and responsive to any queries we had. We can not recommend Chris highly enough.

Very responsive, efficient and effective
Chris was quick to respond to my queries. He kept the appointment times which we arranged for estimation and fitting and kept me in the loop with developments. The fitting was neat, tidy and quick. I would recommend him to anyone looking to upgrade their intruder and front door security.

Quality, Efficiency & Value For Money
Having been let down by previously recomended alarm companies who either didn't turn up to quote, or who did quote but never turned up to do the work, we found Woodward Security on this site and based on the many great reviews decided to book a quote. Chris was prompt with his reply, agreed a date/time to suit and after assessment quickly recomended the best options for our property which needed an old, broken system completely replacing plus sensor reconfiguration following an internal refurb. We found Chris to be extremely knowledgable and friendly so booked Woodward Security to undertake the work. We then had to change the booking due other contractors, and Chris was very understanding and agreed to amend the installation date without fuss. On the day of the work Chris explained what he was going to do, checked noise levels were ok as I was working from home at the time, and was polite, courteous and professional throughout. He went through the full system and set up, including the mobile app and went through everyrhing in detail. Once finished he then tidied up and left no mess at the property, which was great. All in all we found Chris to be knowledgeable, efficient, friendly and tidy. Pricing was reasonable and we do feel like we got real value for money, which is all you want as a customer. If you need a new alarm system or are due an upgrade then Woodward Security is a fantastic choice.

Great job on time
I picked Woodward based on good reviews and I prefer to use a locally owned business. I needed my out of date cameras and recorder replacing which involved total rewire and new transmitters. I wasn’t disappointed Woodward were as good as their reviews and I will definitely use again.

Alarm and CCTV instal
Chris took over an existing alarm system, sorted out all the old issues and replaced the central unit. This was followed by an upgrade to our CCTV system and subsequent App set up and tuition. Great service, very neat work and fully tidied up afterwards. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his services. Thanks Chris.

Alarm system and CCTV
Chris and his team did a fantastic job fitting my alarm system and cctv recently. Chris was very knowledgeable, he helped me choose the best cameras for what I needed and went above and beyond to help. They were able to accommodate my short time frame and were nothing but professional on the day. I am very pleased with the service and how well all of the wires have been hidden. I would 100% recommend Woodward Security!

Value for money
After receiving a couple of outlandish quotes from other firms I came across Chris Woodward. He listened to our requirements, quoted a reasonable price. He scheduled the work to be done before our holiday, arrived on time, did the job without a fuss, cleaned up after himself. In addition to the alarm system, he fitted an outside light. Totally satisfied with his prices and 1st class work.

I contacted Chris for the installation of an alarm system following reading excellent reviews. The quote was very competitive and Chris was highly professional. The work was carried out according to schedule and with very little disruption. No mess was left. The equipment installed was excellent. I have no hesitation in recommending Woodward Security and I will certainly use him in the future.
