A visible presence when your street is quiet.
Local eyes and ears. Greater peace of mind.
From concerns about car door handles to antisocial behaviour, start with your home and invite your neighbours to share the cost of agreed patrols.
Just your property is enough. Plan regular checks for your home or invite nearby neighbours to share a route. Tell us your preferred schedule; no credit purchase is needed to enquire.
A patrol is one agreed drive-by, uniformed walk-by or accessible exterior round, followed by a report. There is no fixed 20- or 30-minute duration: the officer takes the time needed to complete the agreed checks and report. The method must suit the property, access and duties. Continuous guarding or additional duties are quoted separately.
1. Tell us what you need.
Choose when to start, your preferred times and the checks you want.
2. We confirm the plan and price.
Plan your start date in advance. We must agree officer availability and arrival windows before a booking is agreed.
3. Receive your invoice, then pay.
Bank transfer is available. Credits are optional.
Exterior observation and reporting only. Back doors, gates and rear areas must be safely accessible with your permission. Entry, keys, alarm reset and repairs require a separate agreement.
Send a WhatsApp message or text; we reply during working hours. This is not an emergency response service. Immediate danger or a crime in progress? Call 999.
Tell us your preferred dates, checks and nearby households. We review the route and give you a quotation. Your invoice and bank details follow once the quotation is accepted; no credit purchase is needed to enquire.
Illustrative patrol scenes. Staffing, equipment, camera use, reporting and the checks included are confirmed in your service brief.
You don’t need to organise everyone before asking for help. Explore cover for yourself, then share a link with nearby neighbours.

Example packages for 10 nearby households sharing one agreed route, based on a proposed £36 including VAT for the whole route per visit. Each home pays one tenth. The route, duties, staffing and final price must be agreed before booking.
A clear acrylic panel with metal stand-off fixings protects the black-and-gold sign. Each subscribing property requires one A5-size Sparta sign (about half an A4 sheet), supplied and installed for a one-off £30 + VAT (£36 including VAT). Agree a suitable fixing position and access with the team. The sign charge is separate from monthly patrol payments.
The sign does not mean continuous guarding or an automatic response. Your actual visits and reporting are set out in the agreed service.
10 subscribing households · £36 including VAT per shared route visit · £3.60 per household per visit. Illustrative prices only. Every required household must fund its agreed contribution before cover is confirmed.
GUARD MY STREETBRONZERESIDENTIAL PATROLS12 visits on dates agreed with you.
GUARD MY STREETSILVERRESIDENTIAL PATROLSExample: one visit on each of 28 agreed nights.
GUARD MY STREETGOLDRESIDENTIAL PATROLSExample: two visits on each of 28 agreed nights.
28 visits = one visit on 28 nights. 56 visits = two visits on 28 nights. These are fixed monthly allowances, subject to route review and availability. They do not promise every night of a 30- or 31-day month. If you want one or two visits every night, we quote for the actual number of nights. Seven visits every week is a different schedule. Example: £36 including VAT per shared route visit, split equally between 10 nearby subscribing households. The total route allowance is £432 for 12 visits, £1,008 for 28 visits or £2,016 for 56 visits. This is a proposed example, not a confirmed price or automatic booking. Every required household must fund its agreed share. One A5 property sign is required per subscribing property: £30 + VAT (£36 including VAT), installed and charged once. Monthly patrol estimates above exclude that sign fee; the first-month totals include it. Safe route, patrol times, checks, fixing position and final plan price are confirmed in the quotation. Extra or replacement signs are quoted separately. Selecting a package starts no subscription.
As more nearby residents join, your community may be able to fund more patrol visits or additional officers. We agree the route, staffing and price before cover starts or changes.
Choose a proposed schedule, then tell us when to start and what you need checked. You can request cover just for your property. No credits are needed to enquire.
A credit costs £1.20 including VAT. The number of patrols depends on the time band and your approved route. Credits are spending value, not a fixed visit allowance.
| Patrol time | Credits per visit | 1,000 credits cover |
|---|---|---|
| 8 a.m.–4 p.m. | 35 | 28 visits + 20 credits left |
| 4 p.m.–9 p.m. | 45 | 22 visits + 10 credits left |
| 9 p.m.–8 a.m. | Approximately 45.83 | 21 visits + 37.5 credits left |
For the shared-route estimate, add 5 credits per visit for each extra nearby property, then divide the whole route cost between the participating homes. For two homes, an evening route is 50 credits per visit, or 25 credits each. An overnight route for two nearby homes is £61 including VAT per visit, or £30.50 each. Fractional credit estimates are rounded for display; the invoice confirms the exact amount.
All required contributions must be funded before the route starts. The team confirms the route, duration, dates, time bands, final prices and credit terms before payment. Visits in different time bands are itemised separately in the quotation.

Start with your own property in your area. If nearby neighbours want cover too, invite them to discuss a practical shared route.
Your subscriptions help fund the agreed visits. More participating homes may make more visits or additional officers possible; the team confirms the route, staffing and price before anything changes.
01 · AskTell us the addresses, preferred dates and checks.
02 · AgreeEach household receives its contribution and payment instructions.
03 · ConfirmThe route starts after approval and all required payments are verified.
Agree how you want your updates before booking. Your report can include the visit date and time, the checks completed, relevant photographs and anything needing attention.
For a shared route, participating residents receive the information they are authorised to see. Household details are kept within the agreed reporting group.
Residents can share this page with a local Facebook group or on WhatsApp. It helps neighbours understand the service and enquire for themselves.
Selected patrol photos can also be prepared for public updates: the officer submits them privately, Sparta reviews what is suitable, and an approved version is published separately. Faces, number plates, house numbers and sensitive incident details should be removed or obscured where needed. Private reports are not posted automatically.
Opposite, next door or around the corner can work. We check actual distance, safe access and the time needed at each property. Sharing a postcode alone does not guarantee the same route price.
Every household required by the approved shared plan must pay its agreed contribution by the payment deadline. A ten-household plan requires ten verified paying households; it is not confirmed when only seven pay. This means the required participants, not every person living on the street.
The shared route does not start without the agreed minimum. If it is not reached by the stated deadline, the team refunds payments collected for that unconfirmed route. Any revised group, price or later start needs fresh agreement. Nobody automatically pays another household’s unpaid share. A solo check can be quoted separately.
Agree how your household will receive patrol updates before booking: photographs, the visit date and time, checks completed and any concerns reported.
For shared patrols, each participating household should receive its authorised update. Private property details and incident photographs are not automatically shared with the whole street.
Requests currently go to the team on WhatsApp. The team confirms your reporting channel in the brief. Reports and manually confirmed credit balances are not automatically added to existing Sparta accounts.
Keep your existing Sparta account for your current bookings. Guard My Street is the residential patrol service from Sparta Guard.
