Thames Bridge Drone Surveys at Mortlake Reach
Specialist over-water thames bridge drone surveys at Mortlake Reach for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Mortlake Reach is a stretch of the tidal Thames our crews know well. Our pilots hold marine radio and work directly alongside skippers during the flight. The river rewards crews who know it; a stranger to this water loses the shot to the tide.
Operations at Mortlake Reach are timed to the tide and to gaps in commercial river traffic. Platforms are chosen for wind resilience and over-water redundancy rather than convenience. A contingency window is built in wherever the shot depends on conditions.
Coordination with the Port of London Authority is standard on every flight at Mortlake Reach. Failsafe return-to-home points account for drift, tide and a moving launch platform. Anything we cannot legally do on the river, we say before you book rather than after.
We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. Contact the operations desk to check dates at Mortlake Reach and get a written quote. There is no obligation attached to an enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you launch drones directly from boats at Mortlake Reach?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels, and our pilots are experienced in launching and recovering from a moving deck.
Can you film moving vessels at Mortlake Reach?
Yes. Vessel tracking is a large part of our river work, from towage and workboat operations to passenger craft. Dual-operator crews let the pilot manage proximity and line of sight while the camera operator holds the shot.
What does river work at Mortlake Reach cost?
It depends on tide windows, whether vessel support is needed and what you want delivered, so we quote per project. Send the brief and the deadline and we will come back with a fixed price and the viable tides.
