Thames Marine Civil Filming in Wandsworth
Specialist over-water thames marine civil filming at Wandsworth for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits in Wandsworth, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Both riverbank and vessel-launched operations are available depending on the shot. Where a brief covers several reaches, we plan them into one run down the river.
River work in Wandsworth is planned against live traffic information, not a generic river chart. RTK platforms are available where the deliverable is a measurement rather than an image. Kit is checked ashore before anything is committed over water.
Our crews hold marine VHF and stay in contact with river traffic while the aircraft is airborne. We can supply method statements for the principal contractor's file where the site requires it. Privacy on the bank is considered in the flight plan, not left to the edit.
Deliverables come in the format your editorial or engineering team already works in. Tell us what you need on the water and we will come back with options, tides and a price. The quickest route is a short email with the location, the subject and the deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you fly at night or in low light on the river?
Yes. Night and blue-hour work over the Thames is something we do regularly, with the lighting conditions and additional risk factored into the plan. Twilight often gives the strongest results on the tideway.
How much notice do you need for river work in Wandsworth?
More than for a land-based shoot, because PLA notification and the tide table both constrain the date. A week or two is comfortable; tell us the deadline and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
Are you insured for flying over water?
Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations, and can provide the certificate along with our CAA authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before booking.
