What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Weddings, charity festivals and private events recur among the projects customers describe, and the same themes of professionalism and reliability come through again and again. Chris and his team are frequently named, with reviewers describing them as approachable, helpful and calm even during long, hot days at outdoor functions. Several customers mention that the team arrived early and stayed in contact throughout, providing reassurance at marquees, private homes and community grounds across the Derby area.

The equipment side is also covered: camera and alarm systems with motion sensors and recorded video feeds were set up for multi-night bookings, and urgent site security following reports of trespassers was arranged at short notice. Reasonable pricing, punctuality and a willingness to answer the phone appear repeatedly, as does the practice of following up after an event to check that everything went smoothly. Staff are described as friendly and proactive in keeping organisers informed of any developments, and the general impression is of a team that handles arrangements without fuss, whether supplying stewards for a first-time festival or covering a private wedding.

We hired NVC Security to provide 24-hour security at a private home whilst we were planning and managing a private wedding, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them more highly. From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, reliable, and reassuring to work with. The team went above and beyond throughout the entire event period, keeping me informed at all times, proactively communicating any updates, and handling everything with complete calm and professionalism. What really stood out was how personable and attentive they were with our clients too, they took the time to introduce themselves properly and immediately made everyone feel comfortable and looked after. Their presence felt discreet yet incredibly organised and efficient, which is exactly what you want for a high-end private event. Absolutely faultless service and I would not hesitate to work with them again. Highly recommend.

Used NVC for some urgent site security attendances following reports of trespassers at the risk address. NVC acted swiftly and were able to provide on-site security for a 36 hour period whilst the property was physically secured with hoarding. NVC were reasonably priced and very professiona l throughout. Would highly recommend their services

NVC provided overnight site security for our outdoor music event. An excellent service from Buzz at the event, and Chris at HQ. We will most certainly be using NVC again for our live event security.

NVC Security Ltd. are supporting Derby Mountain Rescue Team by protecting our New Base build project in Derby. They have supplied and installed a state-of-the-art security system on site, along with 24/7 site monitoring and response, giving us peace of mind that the charity's most valuable asset is protected from intruders. I have found the team at NVC to be knowledgeable, helpful, and understanding of our needs and we are extremely grateful of their ongoing support. Highly recommended.
