Chris quoted the job due to Covid and my personnel limitations. turn up on the day and on time, which is a bonus. Completed installation and having witnessed am I so glad I did not attempt privately. Did they do a good installation? Well without going into detail the answer is simple yes. They knew I wanted a professional installation and that is what was delivered and with some difficulty but they did not give up. Better still the professional support in setting up the app and going through it in detail was in my case most appreciated. Would I have them back again? Well yes without question. Do they install and walk away? Well I can't answer that but if anything I can say is up to now is from start to finish I am very much impressed and very happy with the service to date, all that was promised was delivered and what more can I ask for and based on this if support or advice is needed and do not doubt Chis or his team will be there to help. On a lighter note the only downside is, they like coffee,

We had been looking for a company to fit our home alarm system and wanted someone local. Chris and his team were absolutely amazing right from the beginning and nothing was to much trouble. After they had installed the alarm system they took their time to explain how everything worked and tidied up after themselves. We would 100% recommend Chris and his team and thank you for making our home safe. Very very happy customer.

I can highly recommend Woodward Security. Chris reviewed our existing system, listened to what I wanted to achieve with an upgrade and some additions and made recommendations providing a comprehensive and competitive quote. On the day of installation Chris and his team did a great job installing the kit and I'm really happy with the security system I now have.

Chris and his lads have installed a CCTV system and a magnetic/shock alarm system at our house today. The work was done on schedule and budget. I was impressed with Chris when he first came round to quote - he helped us arrive at a security solution that feels absolutely right for us. He was open and honest about the pros and cons of various options. He even deactivated our (broken) existing alarm system for us! His two lads, Louis and George, were fantastic today. Impossibly polite, hard-working, helpful and considerate. I cannot praise or recommend them highly enough.

On the day of work being undertaken, he was helpful and courteous. His colleagues were a credit to him. Everything was left clean and tidy. Really pleased with the work and would certainly recommend them to family and friends.

Chris was fantastic from my first contact and was very prompt in coming to see me about our requirements. Chris was very knowledgeable and gave me a thorough review of my security and was never pushy in any way and I received my quotation the same day. Chris and his team arrived on-time and nothing was too much trouble and they treated my home with the upmost respect and cleaned everywhere before they left. Louis and George took their time and showed me how everything worked and to say I am more than pleased with the installation is an understatement. Keep up the excellent work and don't hesitate to have Woodward Security install your new systems.

A neighbour suggested we speak with Chris and I was very impressed with his approach. No hard sell. Very approachable. Very knowledgeable. Quotations were received very promptly and it was very easy to reach Chris and discuss further. It’s also neat having strong office support - there is an Administration Manager so everything runs smoothly. The installation team was very professional, very easy to talk to and they clearly wanted to make sure I was 100% happy before they left. Great customer service. Great product. Highly recommended.

We used Woodward Security to replace the alarm and install CCTV in our doctors surgery. The service was first class especially as they had to fit around patients. Communication was excellent and the lads on site were fantastic. I would 100% recommend them.

From the initial contact to the final installation, Chris and his team have been excellent. The admin team were highly efficient at the first point of contact and made an appointment at a time to suit us. Chris is very approachable and knowledgeable, and discussed options with us to suit our requirements and budget without being pushy. He answered every question we had and any follow up questions were answered equally quickly. The installation team are very friendly, and the work has been carried out to a very high standard with absolutely minimal disruption. They ensured everything was carefully done and the finished product looks great... there is no evidence of cabling which was important to us, it's a really tidy and neat job. Chris even helped tweak our cameras remotely when we decided we wanted them in slightly different viewing positions and nothing is ever too much trouble. It's reassuring to use a company who have such high standards of customer care even when the job is completed. We would have no hesitation in 100% recommending Woodward Security.

I can highly recommend Woodward Security who have just installed a domestic burglar alarm. Chris is very professional and knowledgeable. He took the trouble to utilise what he could from my defunct wired system in order to minimise the work and the cost of the new system. Louis and George did an excellent installation job. They were friendly, courteous, efficient and cleared up afterwards. Everything was done to the highest standard and they ensured that I understood how to operate the system. I am confident that should I have any further queries or need advice I shall be able to rely on Chris and his team.

Following a recommendation from a neighbour Chris Woodward quoted for a CCTV system for my home. I thought the quote reasonable and Chris, Louie and George installed a 4 camera Hikvision CCTV system at my home. All were friendly, professional and efficient and the system was up and running on the same day - working in darkness and rain to get it done! A couple of glitches were sorted out without quibbles and Chris replied to email queries about system operation very quickly. I would recommend unreservedly.

We contacted Chris after reading great reviews on Which? Trusted Traders and visiting his website. We made contact with Chris and had a prompt reply and visit. Chris was understanding about our requirements and found solutions. On the day of installation Chris, Louie and George were respectful of our home and patient when showing us how to use the system. I feel confident Chris will be helpful in the future if we have any queries. 100% recommend Woodward Security.

After looking for an alarm fitting quote, I got in touch with Woodward Security (after scouring reviews of varying companies), whereby Chris was in touch, talking through potential options that suit our requirements. Their engineers were punctual, professional, and fit of the equipment was very well done (can't see any cabling). Very pleased, they're a First class team! I'd highly recommend them!

We dealt with Chris the proprietor and he was very prompt with attending to give us a quote and then booking the job in and completing the work. Very fair price for the work completed in comparison to what other companies wanted to charge and feel like we have received a real personal and professional service from someone who is obviously very good at what they do. The price quoted for ongoing maintenance on an annual basis is also very reasonable compared with what we have paid previously at our old premises and having also used the company for home CCTV I would not hesitate to recommend.

I contacted Woodward Security and Chris responded to me swiftly and agreed an appropriate time to offer an onsite quote. He turned up on time and explained all the CCTV options carefully and clearly. There were no pushy sales techniques, just clear information to help me make an informed decision. He emailed me his final quote a couple of hours later. We booked him straight away and he managed to fit our job in the following week. Chris arrived on time and explained exactly what he was going to do and advised which camera position would be best. He completed the job to a high standard and was even able to do me a couple of other little jobs before leaving; by removing some old ariel cables that were no longer needed. The team were clean, tidy and professional. I will be using Woodward security again when I upgrade my alarm system.

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.

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!
