CCTV & Security Across West & Greater Melbourne — Vetted, 5-Star Match
CCTV + IP camera install, alarm install, smart doorbell, NVR + cloud storage, intercom + access control. Home + commercial.
Services Victoria is the curated marketplace for security cameras services across Melbourne. Every security installer on the platform is vetted before they're listed — ≥4.5★ Google rating, ≥20 reviews, current ABN, $5m+ public liability, recent photo portfolio, sub-1-hour response record. We say no to 60% of applications. The full vetting standard is on /vetting-process/.

How Services Victoria works
- You submit the form with your suburb, postcode, and a sentence about the job. Photo helps.
- We match within the hour during business hours. You get a text/email with the matched security installer's name, photo, current Google rating, and a one-line intro.
- They contact you with a fixed quote, usually within 24 hours of the match.
- You book directly with them. Job done, photos texted on completion.
- We follow up at 48 hours with a one-question email so the vetting stays honest.
Free for customers. The matched security installer pays a monthly platform fee — never a per-job cut. Your quote isn't padded.

How we vet security installers
Every security installer on the platform passes a 6-point check before they're listed:
- Business identity — ABN active ≥12 months under the current trading name
- Insurance — current $5m+ public liability with the trade covered
- Google rating — ≥4.5★ over ≥20 reviews
- Photo portfolio — 8+ original recent photos in the trade
- Response time test — we send a fake-customer inquiry, target <60 minutes
- Background check — no major fair-trading or VCAT decisions in 5 years
We re-vet quarterly. If a security installer's rating drops below 4.5★ or insurance lapses, their listing pauses. Full detail at /vetting-process/.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this free for customers?
Yes. 100%. The matched security installer pays Services Victoria a monthly subscription, not a per-job cut. Your quote is the same as you'd get from them direct.
How does this compare to Airtasker or Hipages?
The big directories make money taking a cut of every job, so their incentive is volume not quality. Anyone with an ABN can list. We charge security installers a flat monthly fee instead — which means we say no to 60% of applications + can keep quality high.
What if I'm not happy with the matched security installer?
Tell us. We re-match free, same day where possible. The security installer that flaked gets a strike on their platform record. Three strikes = removal.
How fast is the match?
Within the hour during business hours (Mon–Sat 8am–5pm). After hours: usually before 9am the next business day.
Do I get to choose the security installer?
The system picks the best fit by default — highest rating, fastest typical callback, closest physical proximity. If you want a specific security installer on the platform, name them in the form and we route the job to them directly.
