Our Services

Strategic Ecological Assessment

For landowners, developers, and project managers who aren't sure how and where to start. A paid site evaluation that delivers an invasive pressure diagnosis, risk classification, and phased management pathway.

Ecological Rebuild

For sites that need more than a little help — degraded land converted into a resilient, self-sustaining native ecosystem. A structured multi-year program combining invasive suppression, native planting, soil stabilization, irrigation integrations, and brose protection.

Vegetation Risk Management

For developers or industrial landowners managing active or deferred sites under regulatory exposure. Biologically timed herbicide containment programs. Single or multi-year with compliance documentation, spray logs, and GIS tracking. Structured to run alongside your build cycle without disrupting it.

Pond & Specialty Infrastructure Restoration

For retention ponds, drainage systems, and ecological infrastructure that have stopped performing. A concentrated, equipment-driven reset: mechanical invasive removal, sediment extraction, basin reconfiguration, and native replanting. Fish window scheduling and QEP coordination handled where required.

Ecological Management

Ongoing vegetation management for ecosystem focused parks and greenspaces. Biologically timed visits — integrating mechanical and chemical treatment with native reinforcement planting and site documentation. Available as multi-site agreements for municipalities and developers managing multiple properties.
