How Our Bug Sweeping Process Works

We’ve refined our bug sweeping services into a systematic process that leaves nothing to chance.

Step 1
Initial Consultation and Threat Assessment

Contact our Leicester team for a confidential discussion about your concerns. Within 24 hours, we assess your risk profile, identify sensitive areas requiring priority attention, and schedule your sweep at a convenient time. For urgent situations, same day response is available.

Step 2
Comprehensive Electronic and Physical Sweep

Our TSCM technicians arrive in unmarked vehicles with complete discretion. We conduct an electronic bug sweep using military-grade detection equipment, followed by a meticulous physical inspection of electrical sockets, smoke alarms, light fittings, air vents, and all potential sources of surveillance. A typical 3-bedroom home takes 3-4 hours; larger properties and complex commercial premises require extended timeframes.

Step 3
Device Removal, Evidence Documentation, and Security Recommendations

If hidden devices are discovered, we document everything with photographic evidence for your written report. We provide actionable security recommendations to prevent future intrusions and can arrange ongoing monitoring for high risk individuals and corporate clients.

What Makes Our Leicester Bug Sweeps Different?

Standard debugging service providers often rely on basic visual checks and entry-level detectors. Our approach goes far deeper.

RF Spectrum Analysis

Our RF spectrum analysers scan wide frequency ranges to detect wireless transmitters, GSM listening device signals, and even burst-transmission bugs designed to evade detection.

What Leicester Clients Are Saying
