Home Security in Tampa, FL
ADT-monitored security and smart-home automation, installed by a localTampa crew from a real Tampa office.
Local techs. Local office. Real ADT monitoring.
From our office on West Busch Boulevard, Bulldog Security Service installs ADT-monitored systems across Tampa Bay — South Tampa, Westchase, New Tampa, Brandon, Riverview, St. Petersburg and Clearwater.
Tampa Bay's coastal weather, dense established neighborhoods and rapidly growing suburbs mean every install is different. Hurricane-ready cellular monitoring, water-leak sensors and battery backup come standard on every Bulldog system.
Tampa crime, by the numbers.
That works out to roughly 13.2 burglaries per week — about 1.9 every day reported in Tampa alone. 60% of convicted burglars said they'd avoid or move on from a home with a visible alarm system, per a UNC Charlotte study of 422 incarcerated burglars (Kuhns & Lee, 2012).
Tampa's 167.4 burglaries per 100k residents is 10% higher than the Florida statewide average of 152.5 — meaning a monitored alarm and visible deterrents matter more than they would in a lower-crime area. Total property crime in Tampa (1,465 per 100k) runs 17% lower than the US national average (1,760 per 100k).

Questions we hear from Tampa customers.
Does Bulldog cover St. Pete and Clearwater?
Yes — our Tampa techs cover both sides of the bay including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo and Pinellas Park.
Will my alarm work during a hurricane?
Yes. Every system includes 24-hour battery backup and cellular monitoring — so signals still reach the central station even when power and internet are out.
Do you do water-leak monitoring for Tampa homes?
Yes. Water-leak sensors are an inexpensive add-on and well worth it in this climate, especially for bathrooms, water heaters and laundry rooms.
