Private Investigator Slough

Professional covert surveillance is one of the most powerful tools in private investigation and one of our most frequently requested services in Slough. 

Our investigators conduct mobile and static surveillance operations across SL1, SL2, and SL3, capturing high-quality photographic and video evidence suitable for personal, family, employment, or legal proceedings.

Slough's dense urban environment — with its residential estates, commercial zones, M4 motorway, A4 Bath Road, and Slough railway station — requires investigators who can operate discreetly across a wide range of conditions. Our team is accredited at SFJ RQF Level 4 in surveillance and has extensive operational experience across the area.

Surveillance services in Slough include:

• Matrimonial and infidelity surveillance

• Cohabitation evidence gathering for family court and financial remedy proceedings

• Insurance and personal injury claim surveillance

• Employee sickness, absence, and misconduct surveillance

Matrimonial investigations are a distinct and sensitive category, instructed by both private clients and family law solicitors across Slough and Berkshire. 

Where a relationship breakdown involves allegations of unreasonable behaviour, infidelity, or financial misconduct, professionally gathered evidence can be decisive — in court proceedings and in negotiation.

Our matrimonial investigation services in Slough include:

• Infidelity and cheating partner investigations

• Cohabitation evidence — establishing whether a former partner is living with a new partner (directly relevant to spousal maintenance and financial remedy orders)

• Divorce and separation evidence gathering

• Child custody and child welfare evidence

• Pre-nuptial investigation — background, financial, and lifestyle checks before marriage

• Internet and online dating background investigations — verifying the identity of someone you have met online
