Report
Had a wireless alarm fitted by ESS Chris came to my house and told me what was required. When I moved he came and swapped it out in to my new property. He also added wireless smoke and carbon monoxide detector. I now have a camera system on order so I can view anytime on my mobile while working away. Really happy with the service and will always use. Fair prices for quality products and services! My parents also use ESS for house alarm and cctv.

Report
I contacted ESS Security Ltd 15 years ago, when the industrial estate that I have my unit on started having unwanted late night visitors. Being a new company, I didn't have a lot of money to spend, but, ESS visited me, and worked out my requirements and came up with an alarm system that was well within my budget. I now have an ESS alarm system in my home and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone thinking of installing an alarm system in their home/office/ unit. Friendly Efficient Reliable Professional
