Technical and Survey
Drone Video for Property and Construction
Progress records, time-lapse, completion films, architectural photography and marketing footage for developers, contractors, architects, marine engineers and property owners - shot from the air, from the ground and inside the building.
A building site changes every week, and once it's finished, the story of how it was built is gone. We capture it as it happens: regular progress flights from fixed positions, time-lapse across the whole build, milestone events and a finished film that shows the result at its best.
The same footage works hard after handover, in tenders, award entries, investor updates, sales and lettings, and social media.
We bring the same approach to maritime engineering - jetty upgrades, quayside and terminal works, crane moves and heavy lifts - working around tides, vessel movements and live port operations.
What we film
Construction progress
- repeat flights from the same positions and heights, so each visit lines up with the last
Time-lapse
- fixed-camera, drone repeat-flight and 360 time-lapse, from a few weeks to a full build programme
Milestones and events
- groundbreaking, topping out, handover and openings
Completion films
- air, ground and interior footage edited into a finished film
Architectural and property photography
- Architectural photography and video of buildings, interiors, developments and premises, from the air and the ground.
Maritime engineering
- jetty upgrades, quayside and terminal works, heavy lifts and coastal defences, filmed from land, water and air
FPV flythroughs
- continuous indoor and outdoor flights through buildings, from a single home to a 15-storey campus
Heritage and restoration
- a visual record of work on historic buildings
Recruitment, training and staff films
- Recruitment videos, staff engagement films and training content, filmed on site with your own teams.
Who we work with
Developers, main contractors, civils and marine engineering firms, port operators, architects, commercial and residential agents, landlords and in-house marketing teams.
Why Solent Sky Services
One crew, every angle.
Drone, FPV, ground camera and stills from the same team, so the footage cuts together naturally.
Edited in-house.
We plan, shoot and edit, with no handover between suppliers.
At home on live sites.
We're experienced on construction sites, MOD sites and working ports. Every job has a RAMS, and we plan flights around site activity with your site manager.
We understand buildings.
The company is led by a former property surveyor, so we know which details matter to engineers, architects and clients.
Inspection and film in one visit
If you also need roof or facade inspection imagery, we can capture it on the same visit as your marketing or progress footage, saving a second mobilisation.
