Thames Marine Civil Filming in Gravesend

Flying in Gravesend means working over moving water, tidal range and live vessel traffic. The work ranges from single vessel shoots to multi-day coverage of marine civil projects. The river rewards crews who know it; a stranger to this water loses the shot to the tide.

We survey the Gravesend bank and the water in advance to fix take-off, landing and contingency points. High-zoom and thermal payloads cover structural inspection of piers, bridges and river walls. Flights are kept tight, because on the river loiter time costs you the tide rather than buying better footage.

We work to PLA requirements as a matter of course rather than as an afterthought. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations. We do not fly outside our permissions, whatever the production schedule says.

Where the tide window is tight, we plan the shot list so nothing depends on a second visit. Contact the operations desk to check dates in Gravesend and get a written quote. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.
