Our Services
Comprehensive bat survey solutions tailored to your project needs
Preliminary Roost Assessments
Initial daytime surveys undertaken to assess buildings, structures, and trees for their suitability to support roosting bats. These assessments identify potential roost features, evaluate the likelihood of bat presence, and provide clear recommendations on whether further surveys are required to support planning applications.
Emergence Surveys
Nocturnal surveys carried out at dusk and dawn to confirm the presence or absence of bat roosts, identify species present, and understand how bats are using the site. Surveys are completed in accordance with current best practice and are designed to meet local planning authority and Natural England requirements.
Expert guidance on avoiding, mitigating, and compensating for impacts on bats during development projects. This may include design recommendations, timing constraints, bat box installation, and support with European Protected Species licence applications where required, ensuring legal compliance and helping projects proceed smoothly.
