Discreet Security. Trusted Estate Support.

Estate Support 24 provides professional security and practical support for private estates, country homes, rural properties and high-value residences.

We understand that protecting an estate requires more than simply placing someone at a gate. It requires trusted people, sound judgement, local awareness and a service built around the individual property and the people who live there.

Our aim is to provide a reassuring and capable presence while remaining discreet, respectful and sensitive to the privacy of our clients.

Experienced Leadership

Estate Support 24 was founded by Nick Marr, a former Metropolitan Police officer with approximately 20 years of policing experience.

Nick’s background also includes leadership development, advanced driver training, risk awareness and operational team management. This experience shapes the calm, practical and professional approach taken across every Estate Support 24 assignment.

The business was developed in response to the particular challenges faced by private estates and rural properties, where conventional security services do not always provide the flexibility, discretion or personal attention required.

Carefully Selected Personnel

Our personnel are selected for their professionalism, reliability, communication skills and ability to make sensible decisions.

Our wider team includes individuals with backgrounds in policing, the military, professional security, emergency response and estate operations.

Where licensable security duties are undertaken, appropriately SIA-licensed personnel are deployed. Team members are also selected and trained according to the requirements of each assignment.

We expect everyone representing Estate Support 24 to be:

  • Professional and dependable
  • Calm under pressure
  • Respectful of clients, residents and estate staff
  • Discreet and confidential
  • Presentable and approachable
  • Capable of working independently and as part of a coordinated team

Our Clients Are Our Strength

A More Complete Approach

Security is most effective when people, procedures and technology work together.

We assess each property individually and can combine a visible security presence with mobile patrols, property inspections, access management, alarm response and practical estate support.

Our services can include:

  • Estate security and guarding
  • Mobile estate patrols
  • Alarm and incident response
  • Vacant property and owner-away inspections
  • Security reviews
  • Contractor and visitor assistance
  • Emergency and temporary cover
  • K9 security and detection support
  • Large-event and private-function security
  • Drone-assisted estate inspections

Every service is tailored to the property, the identified risks and the client’s preferred level of support.

Discretion and Confidentiality

Privacy is central to our work.

Our clients may include private families, estate owners, businesspeople and individuals whose circumstances require an especially discreet service. We do not take a one-size-fits-all approach, and information concerning our clients, their properties and their routines is treated with care.

Our personnel understand that they are entering a private environment and must work respectfully alongside residents, household staff, estate employees, contractors and guests.

Security Without Unnecessary Confrontation

Our approach is based on prevention, observation, communication and an appropriate response.

A professional security presence should reduce risk, identify vulnerabilities and provide reassurance without creating an intimidating atmosphere. Our personnel are expected to remain alert, approachable and proportionate in everything they do.

Clear instructions, reliable reporting and defined escalation procedures ensure that concerns are handled calmly and consistently.

Flexible Support When You Need It

Estate Support 24 can provide ongoing assignments, temporary cover and support at short notice.

Whether you require regular overnight patrols, additional protection following an incident, cover while a property is vacant or discreet security for a private event, we will develop a service around your circumstances.

We currently support clients across Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey, Hampshire, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas. Assignments in other locations can also be considered.

Speak to Us in Confidence

Every estate and private residence has different requirements. We begin with a confidential conversation to understand your concerns, assess the property and recommend an appropriate level of support.
