Frequently Asked Questions
What is wetland creation?
Wetland creation is the process of designing and building new wetland features — field scrapes, reed beds, SuDS wetlands, backwaters and habitat areas — on land that was previously dry or used for other purposes. We create wetlands for biodiversity, flood attenuation, water treatment and conservation across Kent and East Sussex.
What is wetland restoration?
Wetland restoration is the process of returning a drained, degraded or silted-up wetland to a functioning habitat — through dredging, silt removal, bank reshaping, reed bed establishment, marginal planting and water level management. We carry out wetland restoration for conservation, agricultural and development land across the South East.
Can you create reed beds for water treatment?
Yes. We construct reed bed filtration systems for septic tank outfalls, agricultural runoff, and surface water polishing, planted with common reed at the correct density for effective filtration.
Do you work with environmental schemes and grants?
We design and build wetland features that qualify for schemes like Countryside Stewardship and Biodiversity Net Gain. We can advise on what's needed and point you toward the right organisations for funding applications.
