We've installed time-lapse cameras in all manner of places - from the hills of Snowdonia to the forests of Scotland - and distance from home plus tricky accessibility to locations increase the importance of preparation. When we quote for a job, an installation fee is estimated but the figure includes a lot more than merely the cost of our time on site during set-up. We spend many hours in the lead up configuring the camera systems, cleaning the lenses and housings, testing th

It's a shame because a high quality video of the scheme with the ability to monitor progress can be an invaluable asset. It showcases the contractor's abilities, for inclusion in future tenders, and provides an incredibly useful tool f
