Construction Drone Filming in SM6

UAS London provides construction drone filming across the SM6 postcode district, under CAA operational authorisation and £10M public liability cover.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

If your site falls in SM6, our construction drone filming team can plan and fly it under existing CAA permissions. Our clients here tend to be developers, contractors, architects and creative agencies. Where you need stills and video, they come from one visit rather than two.

Height changes what the site communicates: context, scale and progress all read differently. Traffic, pedestrians and overhead services in SM6 shape the plan as much as the regulations do. Sutton is a regular working area for us, and SM6 is part of it.

The SM6 plan starts from what is on the ground, not from a standard template. Two-operator setups are available where the shot needs independent camera control. Privacy is considered in the flight plan, not left to the edit.

Crews carry their permissions on site and brief your ground staff before the first flight. Delivery is by secure cloud transfer, with the raw files retained as backup. Every job gets a written brief confirmation before we mobilise.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do we actually receive at the end?

That depends on the brief: graded video, high-resolution stills, orthomosaic maps, 3D models or an inspection report. Raw capture is handed over on the day and finished output follows by secure cloud transfer.

Do you retain copyright, or do we?

Licensing is agreed before the shoot and written into the quote, so there is no ambiguity afterwards. Tell us how you intend to use the material and we will scope the licence to match.

Can you work around a live site in SM6?

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.
