Jo completed a bat survey for us, and we were extremly happy with the service we recieved. He was very knowledgeable and thorough, and the survey and report were completed and recieved on the same day. The report was very detailed. Fantastic job all round, would highly recommend!

Whilst seeking planning permission for a replacement building my local Planning Authority requested a Bat & Bird Survey on my old worn out wood barn/stable complex. Jo attended the site promptly, did a thorough examination of the building over several hours and produced a detailed report on the very same day. The price was very good, more reasonable I thought compared to other quotations I had received and more importantly for me communication, both online and in person, has been excellent throughout. I can now happily move forward with my project and can fully recommend Jo.

We commissioned Jo to do a Preliminary Roost Assessment of an adjoining barn. He was responsive and carried out the assessment within a few days, producing a thorough and professional report. He was friendly and knowledgeable.

A professional and efficient service from Jo to provide a Bat PRA for a Planning Application. I look forward to working with him again on my next application where I need his services.

We required an initial bat roosting survey for a domestic extension, as we were raising the roof. After speaking to a number of companies, Jo’s quote was competitive but best of all he was able to undertake this within our timescale. He regularly communicated, asked the right questions, I admired his professionalism and honesty, and the appropriate level of detail in his report, even though it turned that our property presented a low to moderate risk of bats roosting, which then required us to undertake an additional set of surveys, Dawn and Dusk. Please also note that Jo does not undertake these next set of surveys, so there is no incentive for him to misrepresent the results to benefit from further work. He did kindly put forward three companies we could approach for additional surveys. Of the companies he put forward, we selected one, who I would also recommend. For an initial bat roost survey I would always recommend going to a company that is unlikely to benefit from additional surveys for that added piece of mind.
