I've just completed a full house renovation and had an alarm installed. My choice was to have this installed over 3 days, weeks apart, due to tge amount if work ongoing at the property. Circle were, as ever, very accommodating with my request and on all 3 occasions their technicians were clean, tidy and communicative. I've used Circle twice before, for an alarm and CCTV upgrade and I highly recommend them!

I searched the Which database of Trusted Traders to find a reliable provider of home alarm systems in the Lothians. I settled on Circle Security because of reviews received. I was not disappointed by my choice. Within a week of contacting the business I had an employee carry out a thorough survey of my property. Communication was excellent with sound advice offered on what would be best security options. Following the survey I received a comprehensive quote clearly detailing what we had discussed and offering additional possible options we had discussed. Everything was clearly priced. I confirmed what I wanted done and received confirmation of a prompt installation date. Two employees arrived on time and carried out the necessary work without fuss. They kept me abreast of what they were doing, removed the previous increasingly costly alarm system, tidied up as they went and ensured that I understood the new system before departure. They went the extra mile to satisfy myself as a customer. In fitting the outside alarm boxes to the front and rear of my property they discovered that the new boxes left unpainted wall that the earlier different shaped boxes had covered. I had some additional wall paint and employees painted the walls where required before installing new alarm boxes - most impressed and avoided me having to later climb ladders and paint! Invoice arrived with items priced correctly. I wish all tradesfolk operated to the same high standard. Recommend!

We used Circle alarms to replace my mother's old system. On the initial survey visit, we were given good advice and all the options to consider. The date from accepting the quote to the work was just over 2 weeks which was super. On the day of the work - they turned up on time, the work was done very efficiently, made no mess, or noise, and were very good at communicating. I highly recommend circle alarms.

Three house moves over the last 18 years and three alarm installations later and we wouldn’t use anyone else! The initial workmanship and subsequent ongoing service received has always been of a high quality and the installation team have been efficient, helpful and respectful of our property on every occasion. I would highly recommend this company.

At the first visit, we got good advice on alarm and CCTV without a sales pitch. The installation was done 3 weeks after placing our order. The fitters completed the job in the 2 days allocated, efficiently and tidily.

We have been using Circle for several years. They are always responsive and professional and carry any work out on time and to quote. All the team are polite tidy and explain what needs done and why. They have done several jobs related to our alarm and we have always been happy. I would have no hesitation in recommending them .

Circle replaced a 10 sensor alarm system from a previous supplier. Their whole approach from initial quotation through to system handover was very professional and created confidence. Installation took a day and a half and they worked very conscientiously, leaving the site tidy. Final bill was as per the quote, even though they had a little extra work to do after they'd deinstalled the previous system
