This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Professional, friendly, 5 star service

Unbeknown to us, we had taken on a project which involved potential complications with bat mitigation. From the first phone call with Alice, to the site survey and report that followed from Greg, EMEC Ecology were professional yet friendly, always incredibly accommodating and a massive help to us as first time developers. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will certainly be using them for future projects. Thank you!

We undertook a 3-week project with EMEC…

We undertook a 3-week project with EMEC to re line our giant pond that kept drying out every summer. We also landscaped the area to create a view in keeping with the surrounding area and to encourage local conservation and wildlife. The pond is already filling up nicely and we are delighted with the results

helpful advice by professionals

I had a complicated request, part of which they could not cover, but they made extra efforts to help with guidance and suggestions for where I could find the relevant person. The surveys they did for me were comprehensive and professional.
