Wildlife Habitat Installations

Ecologically-informed bee posts built from sustainable timber that provide habitat for our endangered native, solitary bees such as leafcutter and mason bees. Drilled holes with diameters ranging from 2-10mm accommodate different kinds of bee. The depth of nesting holes is critical in order to ensure an even gender balance of new bees.

Our ‘Mini Meadows’ are steel planters with access holes for bees, and a sand and soil substrate to create the perfect conditions within which peaceful, solitary bees can build their chambers. The planter is seeded with a wildflower mix suitable for your site, providing a beautiful and self-contained biodiversity feature.

We install a variety of bird boxes suitable for your site, including species-specific boxes such as house sparrow terraces and barn owl boxes. For certain sites, we can also provide nest boxes with clever tunnel system inside that protects young birds from cats and squirrels. Bird boxes are carefully positioned within your garden to ensure protection from the elements.

All UK bats are protected species, making habitat provision highly desirable for suitable private gardens, and essential for NPF4 compliance for commercial clients. Professionally installed at 4-5m height.

Weatherproof hedgehog houses provide secure nesting sites with predator-proof entrances. Ground-level installation includes habitat connectivity and seasonal management guidance.

Lacewings are voracious predators of aphids and garden pests, providing natural pest control. Our lacewing boxes offer overwintering shelter to encourage these beneficial insects. Professionally installed at optimal height for maximum colonisation success.

ideal for the likes of communal residents’ gardens, these signs provide vital information to people about biodiversity in your garden or grounds. Signage is often essential to ensure a positive reception from people, and the text can be tailored to your exact requirements, whether that is explaining the presence of dead wood habitats, or identifying creatures that might be spotted in your wildflower meadow.

UK reptiles like slow worms and common lizards have declined due to habitat loss, making garden refuges vital. Our stone habitat installations create essential basking spots, shelter and hibernation sites. Ground-level installation includes positioning advice for optimal reptile activity and connectivity.

Wildflower meadow installation projects are carried out in the greater Glasgow area, and further afield for larger jobs. After conducting a detailed site assessment including soil tests and microclimate analysis, Tom designs a bespoke, ecologically-informed, native wildflower seed mix. We then prepare the ground and seed it with your tailormade mix, providing aftercare services or advice as required.
