Fire Watch Services

Fire watch is the highest-consequence, lowest-forgiveness discipline in physical security. When a sprinkler system is impaired, when a welder strikes an arc, when a hot-work permit is pulled — an insurer, an AHJ and a Fire Marshal expect a documented, uninterrupted human presence. We staff that presence across Saskatchewan with officers specifically trained on the National Fire Code of Canada, the Saskatchewan Fire Code, and NFPA 51B hot-work requirements.

Our fire watch service covers construction sites during hot-work permits, industrial facilities during sprinkler or alarm impairments, event venues during pyrotechnic setups, healthcare and long-term-care facilities during system testing, and vacant or post-fire buildings requiring 24-hour occupancy. Every officer arrives with a fire-watch log book, a portable extinguisher, high-visibility PPE and the direct line to the local fire dispatch.

Rounds are timed and documented — typically every 15, 30 or 60 minutes depending on the AHJ's requirement — and reports are delivered daily to your insurance representative, general contractor and site super. Where a sprinkler impairment extends beyond the standard 10-day window, we coordinate the reporting stack your insurer will demand.

We deploy fire-watch officers province-wide, from downtown Saskatoon and Regina office towers to industrial retrofits in Estevan, Prince Albert, Lloydminster and every construction site in between. Emergency deployments are dispatched from our 24/7 operations centre with a target on-site time of under two hours in urban centres.
