★★★★★5.0
★★★★★5.0Security guards in Reading and across Berkshire from £24 per hour — SECURICO supplies directly employed, SIA-licensed officers, available at short notice with transparent pricing and a named local contact.
No call-centre runaround — a named contact, vetted officers and dependable cover right across Reading and Berkshire.
Reading is the commercial heart of the Thames Valley, and corporate security is its biggest single demand. The business parks — Green Park, Thames Valley Park and Winnersh Triangle, home to major technology and corporate occupiers — need front-of-house, concierge and access-control cover. In the centre, The Oracle and Broad Street call for retail loss prevention, while the bars and clubs around Friar Street drive SIA door supervision. Reading's steady development pipeline, including the station quarter and Green Park's growth, keeps empty-property and plant protection in demand, and the riverside and event sites add seasonal crowd work. Residential districts such as Caversham, Tilehurst, Lower Earley and Whitley suit visible mobile patrols. Our Reading officers are SIA-licensed and based locally, run from our Cardiff control room, so cover flexes from a single business-park reception to a managed team across multiple sites in Reading and the wider Berkshire area.
