Construction Drone Filming in UB18

Everything we fly in UB18 sits inside permissions we already hold, with paperwork available on request.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

Construction drone filming in UB18 is something we are set up to do at short notice. Briefs range from a single set of stills through to full production support. Deliverables can be split across several recipients where the client team is spread out.

An aerial set of the site gives you context that a street-level photograph loses. Local access, not airspace, is often the real constraint on work in UB18. UB18 shares its airspace picture with the rest of Southall, which we already know well.

Before we fly in UB18 we check airspace restrictions, obstacles and ground risk on the day. The aircraft is chosen after the brief is understood, not before. Crew brief happens on site, in front of whoever is responsible for the ground.

Crews carry their permissions on site and brief your ground staff before the first flight. Turnaround is same-day for raw material and 24 to 48 hours for edits, maps or reports. Our quotes set out what is included so there is nothing to argue about afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will you be on site in UB18?

Most single-subject jobs take one to three hours on site including setup, briefing and packing down. Larger sites, multiple elevations or survey work take longer, and we confirm the expected window when we quote.

How much notice do you need for a booking in UB18?

A few days is comfortable for most UB18 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.

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.
