Construction Drone Filming in SM5

From single visits to scheduled programmes, we deliver construction drone filming throughout SM5.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

Our pilots work in SM5 often enough to know its airspace constraints before we arrive. The mix runs from property and construction through to events and editorial. Where you need stills and video, they come from one visit rather than two.

An aerial set of the site gives you context that a street-level photograph loses. We have flown enough of London to know where SM5 gets complicated. We hold current airspace knowledge for Sutton as a whole, SM5 included.

Any SM5 flight close to controlled airspace gets NATS or ATC coordination arranged in advance. We carry enough kit to change approach on site if conditions demand it. Every crew member knows the abort criteria before the first take-off.

Paperwork is ready before the booking is confirmed rather than chased afterwards. Nothing is held back pending payment; you get the material as agreed. We flag anything that could delay the SM5 shoot as soon as we spot it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you insured, and can we see the certificate?

Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance and can send the certificate, our CAA operational authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before the booking is confirmed.

Can you work around a live site in SM5?

Yes. We plan around access routes, working hours and pedestrian movement, and can schedule flights for quieter windows to keep ground risk down. Cordons and marshalling are agreed in advance rather than arranged on the day.

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.
