Private investigation services across Kensington and West London

From the elegant streets around Kensington High Street and Kensington Palace to the busy routes linking Notting Hill, Holland Park and Earl’s Court, the area has a mix of residential, commercial and tourist activity. Our investigators understand how to operate effectively in this environment, blending into the surroundings and choosing the right locations and timings to gather reliable evidence without being noticed.

For private clients, we can help with concerns about a partner’s behaviour, suspected infidelity, welfare and safeguarding issues, harassment or stalking, worries arising from online relationships, and tracing people you’ve lost contact with. You’ll have one main contact who will talk you through your options, agree a practical plan and provide ongoing support throughout the investigation.

For businesses, landlords and legal professionals, we offer covert surveillance, background and pre-employment checks, employee misconduct and theft enquiries, fraud investigations, and support for ongoing legal or insurance matters. Our reports are structured, factual and easy to follow, making it straightforward to share them with solicitors, HR teams or other advisers where necessary.

FAQs

Answers to common questions about our professional surveillance services.

What areas do you cover from Kensington?

While this page focuses on Kensington, our investigators routinely work across West and central London, including Notting Hill, Holland Park, Chelsea, Earl’s Court, Hammersmith and the surrounding districts. We’re also able to take on instructions elsewhere in the UK and can often assist with cases that involve activity in more than one location.

What types of cases do you handle in Kensington?

We work with private individuals, families, companies and professional advisers. Typical cases include relationship and matrimonial investigations, background checks, tracing missing persons or debtors, child and welfare enquiries, monitoring employees or contractors, internal theft and fraud investigations, and surveillance to support ongoing legal disputes. If your situation isn’t listed, you’re welcome to contact us for confidential advice.

Is everything kept confidential?

Yes. Confidentiality underpins every part of our work. Your enquiry is treated in the strictest confidence, and we do not share your details or any case information with third parties without your consent. Our investigations are planned to minimise the risk of the subject – or anyone around them – discovering that an investigator has been instructed.

How much does a private investigator in Kensington cost?

Pricing depends on the nature of the instruction, the resources required and the expected duration of the work. After an initial discussion, we’ll outline the most suitable approach for your situation and provide a clear indication of fees before you decide whether to proceed. There are no hidden charges, and we’ll agree the budget with you in advance.

How quickly can you start an investigation?

In many instances we can begin work at relatively short notice, particularly if there is a specific time frame or event that needs to be monitored. Once we understand your objectives, we’ll propose a plan of action and confirm how soon our investigators can be deployed.

Do I need to meet you in person?

It’s entirely your choice. Many clients are comfortable handling everything by phone, email or secure video call, which works perfectly well for most cases. If you would prefer to meet face-to-face, we can arrange a discreet meeting in Kensington or central London at a convenient time and location.
