Civil Engineering Drone Surveys in UB1

UB1 is inside our regular operating area. Our civil engineering drone surveys crews mobilise quickly and arrive with the paperwork already done.

If your site falls in UB1, our civil engineering drone surveys team can plan and fly it under existing CAA permissions. Jobs come in from main contractors, subcontractors and the client side directly. Deliverables can be split across several recipients where the client team is spread out.

A drone reaches vantage points in UB1 that scaffolding and cherry pickers cannot justify. The airspace picture over UB1 is checked fresh for each booking. Southall is a regular working area for us, and UB1 is part of it.

Airspace over UB1 is checked on the day as well as at the planning stage. We carry enough kit to change approach on site if conditions demand it. We do not fly outside our permissions, whatever the deadline looks like.

We can supply method statements and risk assessments for your own site paperwork. Give us the site details and we will confirm feasibility and cost before you commit. Nothing about the UB1 operation is subcontracted out without telling you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much notice do you need for a booking in UB1?

A few days is comfortable for most UB1 sites, and we can often cover urgent work at shorter notice. Jobs needing NATS or ATC coordination, or access to a restricted site, need longer, and we will flag that as soon as we see the brief.

Can you fly indoors or in enclosed spaces?

Yes, with sub-250g aircraft and appropriate planning. Enclosed and confined spaces need their own risk assessment and often a different platform, so tell us about the environment early and we will confirm what is workable.

What does a shoot in UB1 cost?

Price depends on the site, the flight time and the deliverables, so we quote per job rather than from a rate card. Send us the UB1 address and a short brief and we will come back with a fixed, obligation-free price.
