Reliable Fire Watch Services Across Nevada
- Fire Code Compliance Support
- 24/7 On-Site Monitoring
- Emergency Response Coordination
- Log Reporting & Documentation
At American Star Guard, we provide professional fire watch services throughout Las Vegas to meet fire code compliance requirements and protect your property whenever alarm or sprinkler systems are offline. Fire watch becomes necessary any time a building's automatic detection or suppression system is impaired — whether due to scheduled maintenance, unexpected equipment failure, or ongoing construction — and local fire marshals typically require continuous human monitoring as a substitute until the system is restored. Our trained officers remain on-site around the clock to monitor for fire hazards, conduct and log documented rounds at set intervals, and respond immediately in the event of an emergency, including notifying the fire department and building occupants without delay. Whether you're managing a construction site, a residential high-rise, or a commercial property in the middle of a system upgrade, we ensure full 24/7 coverage, accurate compliance documentation, and complete peace of mind — so you're never caught out of compliance or exposed to unnecessary risk.
Our Services, Your Peace of Mind
24/7 Protection
Round-the-clock coverage to detect fire risks and respond instantly, day or night, with no gaps in coverage during shift changes. Every fire watch assignment is staffed for continuous monitoring for the full duration your system remains offline, whether that's a single overnight shift or an extended multi-week construction project.
Code-Compliant Protection
Fire watch requirements are set by local fire codes and enforced by fire marshals, and non-compliance can result in fines, stop-work orders, or even a full building shutdown. Our fire watch protocols are built around Nevada fire code requirements, so you stay compliant and avoid costly disruptions to your operations or project timeline.
Trained & Licensed Officers
Every officer assigned to a fire watch post is licensed under Nevada state security guard requirements and specifically trained in fire hazard recognition, evacuation procedures, and emergency notification protocols — not simply a general security guard reassigned to a fire watch role.
Innovating Security Solutions
Security Consulting
Surveillance of alarms, sensors, and security systems by a central monitoring station that can dispatch authorities if needed, giving you an added layer of oversight beyond the on-site officer alone.
Event Security
For venues and properties hosting events while fire systems are temporarily offline, we can pair fire watch coverage with event security staffing to keep both guests and property protected under one coordinated plan.
Emergency Response
Our officers are trained to act immediately the moment a fire hazard is detected — activating alarms, alerting occupants, and contacting the fire department without hesitation, minimizing response time when every second counts.

FAQ
When is fire watch legally required?
Fire watch is typically required whenever a building’s fire alarm, sprinkler system, or standpipe is out of service for an extended period, especially while the building remains occupied. Requirements vary by jurisdiction, so it’s worth checking with your local fire marshal, but most commercial and multi-family properties in Las Vegas fall under this requirement during any system outage.
How often do fire watch officers patrol the property?
Patrol frequency is typically set by local fire code — often every 30 minutes — and our officers log each round with a timestamp to provide documented proof of continuous monitoring for compliance and insurance purposes.
Can fire watch be arranged on short notice?
Yes. System failures and unexpected outages don’t wait for a convenient time, and we’re able to deploy licensed fire watch officers quickly to keep your property compliant without a gap in coverage.
Do you provide fire watch for construction sites?
Yes — fire watch is common on active construction sites, particularly during hot work like welding or cutting, or any period when a building’s permanent fire suppression system hasn’t yet been activated.
What happens if a fire hazard is detected during a shift?
Our officers are trained to respond immediately: activating alarms, evacuating occupants if necessary, and contacting the fire department without delay, all while documenting the incident for your records.
