Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does CCTV installation cost?
- A basic 4-camera system with installation costs £300–£800 for residential. Business systems with higher-spec cameras and recorders cost £500–£3,000+. IP cameras with cloud storage add ongoing costs.
- Do I need permission to install CCTV?
- For home CCTV, no permission needed unless in a listed building. If cameras capture public areas or neighbours' property, you must comply with GDPR and display signage.
- What is the difference between analogue and IP CCTV?
- IP (digital) cameras offer higher resolution, remote viewing, and better integration with smart home systems. Analogue is simpler and cheaper but lower quality. Most new installations use IP.
- How long is CCTV footage stored?
- Typically 30 days for most systems. GDPR recommends storing no longer than necessary. Commercial systems often retain 90 days, some critical infrastructure up to a year.
