Hire the right coverage for the hours that matter
Security is bought by the shift. A lobby that needs a person from 07:00 to 19:00, a lot that needs eyes from 22:00 to 06:00 and an event that needs a crowd plan are three different jobs, and the guides here start from the hours.
Each Houston company in the directory has a profile with its address, phone number and the services it offers. Texas licenses guard companies and officers through the Department of Public Safety, so every guide points to the license search before you sign.
