What to check when hiring security systems / CCTV in Canada

MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence. No ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.

  • Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
  • A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
  • Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
  • Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out.
  • Get a written quote and keep guarantee, insurance and payment terms in writing.

How to judge a security systems / CCTV

Independent, no-ads guidance. The trade-specific checks that matter most, the warning signs, and what to ask before you hire. Use it alongside each contractor’s public evidence above.

Verify before you hire

  • Security and alarm installers are licensed under provincial private-security legislation in most provinces (e.g. Ontario's PSISA, BC's Security Services Act, Alberta): ask for the business and worker licence, and verify it.
  • Any line-voltage wiring (not low-voltage cabling) is electrical work needing a licensed electrical contractor; confirm who does it.
  • Read the monitoring contract carefully: term length, monthly fee, what's monitored, and whether the equipment is yours or leased and locked to one provider.
  • Check liability insurance, data-handling for camera footage, and verifiable reviews: these people see inside your home.

Warning signs of a rogue contractor

  • No provincial security-worker/business licence where one is required.
  • Door-to-door 'free system' offers that bind you to a long, costly monitoring contract.
  • Equipment locked to one monitoring company, or unclear who owns it.
  • No proof of insurance, or no clear policy on where camera footage is stored.

Questions to ask before you hire

  • What is your provincial security licence, and can I verify it?
  • Who does any line-voltage electrical work: a licensed contractor?
  • What are the monitoring term, fee, and do I own the equipment?
  • Do you carry liability insurance, and where is my camera footage stored?

How do I choose a trustworthy security systems / CCTV?

What should I check before hiring a security systems / CCTV?
