Florida requires a fire watch whenever a building’s built-in fire protection is impaired or while hot work is underway. That includes a sprinkler system out of service under NFPA 25, a fire alarm offline under NFPA 72, welding or cutting under NFPA 1 and 51B, and construction conditions under NFPA 241. Okeechobee County Fire Rescue, working under the Florida Fire Prevention Code, enforces these rules locally. If you are unsure whether your situation needs coverage, call us and we will walk through it with you before dispatching.

Our fire watch service runs $30 to $50 per hour. The exact rate depends on the property size, the number of guards needed, and the patrol schedule the code or your permit requires. We do not require a long-term contract, so you pay only for the coverage window you actually need, whether that is a single overnight shift during hot work or several weeks while a sprinkler system is repaired. Call us and we will give you a clear rate before any guard is dispatched, with no hidden setup fees.

The guard patrols a fixed route across your property on a set schedule, watching for smoke, heat, and any sign of fire. Each pass is recorded in a patrol log with a time stamp and the guard’s name. If a fire starts, the guard immediately calls 911 and follows the building’s evacuation plan. During hot work, the guard keeps an extinguisher within reach and stays on watch for 30 to 60 minutes after the work stops. The completed log becomes your proof of coverage for Okeechobee County Fire Rescue.

Often, yes. Fish camps, marinas, and lakeside buildings around Taylor Creek and Lake Okeechobee take fire alarm or sprinkler systems offline during repair and renovation work. Under NFPA 25 and NFPA 72, a building cannot sit unprotected while those systems are down, so a fire watch fills the gap until repairs are verified. We cover these properties through their projects, patrolling each building and logging every pass so the owner has a clean record for Okeechobee County Fire Rescue.

We cover Taylor Creek as part of our South-Central Florida service area, putting a licensed guard on site in under three hours and staffing coverage around the clock.

From fish camps and marinas to RV parks, ranch buildings, and small commercial along US-441, we know the properties and the inspectors. Call us and you get a guard, a clear rate, and a record for the Fire Marshal.
