After working with Akers Land and Ecology for the river restoration construction on the Clifton Brook at Rugby, we found them to be very knowledgeable and flexible in their working approach to delivering the designs which is of particular importance for works of this type. This led to the delivery of a successful and sustainable scheme for the watercourse. We would not hesitate in utilizing the services of Akers Land and Ecology Ltd again for similar project into the future.

We were recommended to Akers Land & Ecology by our ecologist. Although we are an Essex based company and Akers Land & Ecology are based near Leeds, we found them to be very competitive on price. They were professional, efficient and very knowledgeable when on site. We would definitely use them again.
