Why Use Construction Time Lapse Cameras on Your Project?
Create a Complete Visual Record
A fully timestamped visual record of your construction site helps resolve disputes, supports valuations, and provides clear evidence of progress, delays, or site conditions.
Monitor Construction Progress Remotely
View your construction site remotely through a secure online portal, allowing project managers and stakeholders to track progress without unnecessary site visits.
Improve Stakeholder & Client Reporting
Share clear, professional progress updates with clients, investors, and internal teams using monthly edited time lapse videos that simplify complex construction programmes.
Reduce Site Visits & Management Time
Remote access to your construction time lapse cameras reduces the need for frequent site visits, saving time while maintaining full oversight of the project.
Capture Professional Marketing Content
High-quality 6K time lapse footage can be used for case studies, tenders, social media, and end-of-project marketing, showcasing your work professionally.
Designed for Live Construction Sites
Our solar-powered cameras are built for long-term use on live construction sites, operating reliably in harsh weather without reliance on mains power.
How It Works
A Fully Managed, Hassle-Free Construction Time Lapse Service
We’ve designed our construction time lapse camera rental to require minimal time and involvement from your team. From planning and installation through to monthly reporting and final delivery, everything is handled for you.
From short-term builds to multi-month construction projects, our time lapse camera rental provides a simple, reliable way to track progress and document your site from start to finish.
1. Site Survey & Planning
We review your site layout, construction programme, and key areas of interest to determine the best camera positions. This ensures clear coverage of critical works while avoiding obstructions and accounting for sun position and site changes.
2. Professional Installation
Our team arranges access equipment and installs your time lapse cameras securely on site. Each camera is solar-powered and weatherproof, making it suitable for long-term use on live construction sites without the need for mains power.
3. Remote Access & Ongoing Monitoring
You receive secure access to an online portal where you can view your construction progress remotely at any time. Stakeholders can be granted access as needed, reducing site visits while maintaining full visibility.
4. Monthly & Final Edited Videos
We create professionally edited monthly progress videos for reporting and internal updates, followed by a final end-of-project time lapse video. These can be branded and used for stakeholder presentations, case studies, and marketing.

The challenge
Multiple stakeholders needed a reliable visual record and monthly updates without frequent site visits. The sprawling site needed to be covered from multiple angles.
The solution
We planned coverage from drawings, installed five solar-powered time lapse cameras, and provided secure portal access. Camera angles were adjusted as the site evolved.
The result
Clear monthly reporting videos, remote visibility for all stakeholders, and a final construction time lapse film used internally and for marketing.
Client: Motability Operations
Location: Coalville
Project Type: Large-scale industrial construction and groundworks
Project Overview
Motability Operations, working alongside main contractor Glencar, delivered a new state-of-the-art vehicle processing facility in Coalville. The project involved multiple construction phases, including:
Conversion of a large warehouse into a high-tech processing centre
Extensive groundworks and new access roads
Reconfigured traffic flow and large parking areas
Construction of wash bays, security buildings, and operational facilities
Due to the scale and complexity of the site, clear visual oversight was essential throughout the build.
The Challenge
With project teams operating from multiple locations, the client required a construction time lapse solution that would:
Allow remote monitoring of site progress
Provide clear monthly updates for stakeholders
Capture key construction milestones
Maintain consistent coverage across a large, active site
Camera placement also needed to avoid obstructions while adapting to changing site conditions.
The Solution: Strategically Positioned Time Lapse Cameras
Following a site review and construction programme assessment, we installed five solar-powered construction time lapse cameras positioned to capture all critical areas of the site.
To ensure consistent, high-quality coverage:
Camera positions were selected based on site layout and sun movement
Coverage was adjusted as the build progressed
All footage was delivered through a secure online portal
This allowed stakeholders to monitor progress remotely without disrupting site operations.
The Results
Monthly Progress Videos
Professionally edited, branded time lapse videos were delivered each month and used in stakeholder meetings and internal reporting.
Remote Visibility for Project Teams
Teams based in Bristol and London accessed the site remotely, reducing the need for unnecessary site visits while maintaining full oversight.
Final Construction Time Lapse Video
A fully edited end-of-project time lapse video, combined with a drone flythrough, captured the complete build and provided long-term marketing and documentation value.
Why This Matters
This project demonstrates how construction time lapse camera rental can:
Improve project oversight
Support stakeholder communication
Provide reliable visual documentation
Deliver valuable marketing assets on completion
