Good practice and regulations
Things worth knowing before you decide:
- Replace hard drives that show errors before they fail completely
- Check that your recorder date and time are correct after any repair
- Replace default passwords and update firmware during upgrades
- If your system is very old, upgrading may be better value than repeated repairs

FAQs
CCTV Repairs and Upgrades: frequently asked questions
Why have my CCTV cameras stopped working?
Common causes are failed power supplies, damaged cables, a faulty recorder or hard drive, or a network problem. We diagnose the fault and explain the options.
Can you repair a system you did not install?
In most cases yes. We inspect the system and advise whether to repair, extend or replace.
My CCTV is not recording. What should I do?
Check the recorder is on and the hard drive is working, then call us. A failed hard drive is a common cause.
Can I upgrade my old analogue cameras?
Often yes. We can upgrade to higher-resolution cameras and recorders and may be able to reuse existing cabling.
Can you add more cameras?
If the recorder and cabling allow, yes. Otherwise we advise on the best way to extend the system.
Is it worth repairing an old system?
It depends on age and the fault. We give honest advice so you do not spend money on equipment that is at the end of its life.
