Founded in 2007, South Wales Private Investigations was established to provide professional, discreet investigation services to clients across Wales and the United Kingdom. Unlike many companies that claim to be "Wales-based" whilst operating from call centres elsewhere, we're genuinely located in South Wales—our office is in Rhigos (CF44 9RJ), and our investigators live and work in the communities we serve.
Our founder, with extensive experience in law enforcement and military intelligence, recognised the need for ethical, thorough investigation services that prioritise client confidentiality and legal compliance. Over the years, we've built a reputation for excellence, handling over 1,000 cases ranging from personal matters like honeytrap investigations and person tracing to complex surveillance operations and background checks.
Our team comprises ex-law enforcement officers and former military intelligence operatives who bring tactical expertise to every investigation. We combine traditional investigative techniques with cutting-edge technology, including covert surveillance equipment, GPS tracking systems, and digital forensics capabilities. Every piece of evidence we gather is prepared to court-admissible standards and presented in comprehensive, professional reports that solicitors and courts trust.
As a registered member with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), we adhere to the highest professional and ethical standards. Every investigation is conducted with complete discretion, ensuring our clients' privacy whilst maintaining full compliance with UK law, GDPR regulations, and data protection requirements. We're not just investigators—we're your local experts who understand the Valleys, know the communities, and deliver results with integrity.
We provide comprehensive private investigation services throughout South Wales, covering all areas within 25 miles of our Rhigos base:
