From initial surveys through to long-term monitoring, we provide the ecological expertise your project needs at every stage.
Comprehensive evaluation of how proposed developments will affect local habitats and species. Our assessments satisfy planning requirements while identifying practical mitigation measures that keep projects moving forward.
Strategic frameworks for rehabilitating degraded landscapes. We assess current conditions, identify target habitat types, design intervention sequences, and establish monitoring protocols that track progress over time.
Detailed calculations using the statutory DEFRA biodiversity metric to demonstrate your project achieves the mandatory 10% uplift. Includes habitat condition assessments, unit calculations, and mitigation recommendations.
Licensed surveys for bats, great crested newts, badgers, reptiles, and other protected species. We hold Natural England class licenses and follow current best practice guidelines for all survey methodologies.
Long-term tracking of ecological indicators to verify that mitigation measures are working as intended. Includes regular site visits, data collection, annual reporting, and adaptive management recommendations.
Comprehensive review of your organisation's environmental footprint, covering land holdings, supply chains, and operational practices. We identify improvement opportunities and develop actionable sustainability roadmaps.
Our licensed ecologists hold qualifications for surveying a comprehensive range of protected species.
From preliminary roost assessments through to emergence surveys and activity transects. We deploy static detectors, conduct manual identification, and produce reports that satisfy Natural England requirements for development license applications.
Survey season runs May through September, though preliminary assessments can occur year-round.
Population assessments using eDNA sampling, torch surveys, bottle trapping, and egg searches. We help navigate District Level Licensing schemes where appropriate, often providing more cost-effective routes to compliance than traditional approaches.
eDNA samples can be collected mid-April through June when water temperatures permit reliable results.
Standard reports delivered within 10 working days. Expedited options available when project timelines demand faster delivery.
94% of applications we support receive approval without ecological objections. We know what committees look for.
Single point of contact throughout your project. No explaining your situation to different people each time you call.
Fixed quotes for defined scopes. Additional work quoted separately before proceeding. No surprise invoices.
All prices exclude VAT. Final quotes provided after initial consultation.
