Our team have the skills to turn your project in to reality, be it creating a new Nature Trail through a town park or delivering a programme of European protected species surveys. Our skills and work ethos and up to date knowledge of legislation and best practice ensures your project is completed on time and on budget.

Director, Mick Smith

"We have often found ourselves delivering projects others will not, our wetland restoration projects have been some of the most challenging. How do you get an 8t excavator 2km across a bog and then dig a 1m x 1.5m deep x 152m long bund while standing on ‘peat porridge’?"

But as an example of Wildbanks philosophy, Mick added.

"Carefully! But these are the fun jobs"
