Ecology and Arboricultural Services

Quants Environmental provides ecology and arboricultural surveys throughout Yorkshire, the north of England and beyond. Our main services include Ecology, Habitat and Biodiversity Surveys (including Preliminary Ecological Appraisals and Biodiversity Net Gain Reports), Protected Species Surveys and Licensing (such as for bats, badgers and great-crested newts) and Tree Surveys.

Our staff have been working in a broad range of sectors with a varied client base for many years. We can draw upon our experience from many different project types, varying in scale and complexity, and are proud of the fact that much of our work is repeat business from regular clients or word of mouth recommendations.

We specialise in steering clients through planning applications, with the aim of delivering practical solutions for our clients and better outcomes for nature.

Quants Environmental is a Registered Practice with the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) and has been trading since 2010. We have experience of co-ordinating the full range of surveys for small residential plans, through to larger developments, renewable energy schemes and linear infrastructure projects.

We offer ecology and tree surveys throughout Yorkshire and the Yorkshire Dales, Derbyshire, Teesside and Tyneside, and occasionally undertake projects further afield, by client request.

I know that we have already thanked you, but thought it deserved a second round of back-slapping. I really appreciate the speed with which you responded to the matter, and the understanding of the urgency with which this was required.
