Construction Progress Monitoring in DA8

Tell us the DA8 site and the brief, and we will confirm what is possible before you commit.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

We take construction progress monitoring bookings across DA8 most weeks of the year. We are as comfortable on a single house as on a multi-acre site. Small jobs are welcome; there is no minimum project size.

Whether the DA8 material ends up in a brochure or a report changes how we shoot it. Local access, not airspace, is often the real constraint on work in DA8. Sites across Dartford get the same crews and the same standards as DA8.

We confirm what permissions the DA8 site needs before anything is booked in. Where the output is data rather than footage, we fly RTK-equipped platforms for survey-grade accuracy. Anything we cannot legally do, we say so before you book rather than after.

Every operation runs under our CAA authorisation with £10M public liability cover in place. Raw files come back the same day, with edited output typically inside 24 to 48 hours. We do not add charges after the fact for travel or parking in DA8.

DA8 fronts the tidal Thames, so a job here can mean launching from the bank, from a pier or from a vessel. We are set up and insured for all three, with PLA coordination handled as standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you CAA approved?

Yes. UAS London is fully CAA approved with enhanced permissions for commercial drone operations in built-up areas. We carry £10M public liability insurance.

Can you fly drones in DA8?

Yes. We hold the necessary permissions to operate safely in DA8. Every operation includes a full risk assessment and coordination with local authorities or airspace controllers where required.

How much notice do you need for a booking in DA8?

A few days is comfortable for most DA8 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.
