Arbtech Consulting Ltd Reviews 

Merry was on time professional and really knew her stuff . Highly recommend

Quick response and quick turnaround. Annabel the specialist we dealt with was excellent, responsive and highly knowledgeable

The client signed up to a 4-6 week delivery of both a PEA and BNG report. It took over 4 months for both reports to be completed. Consultant didn't listen to comments or instructions, failed to understand that it was associated with an appeal process and the final report refers to the wrong policy basis. Given time delays to get an appeal in, the refusal to release draft reports before the client made payment resulted in insufficient time to get amendments done.
Will avoid using again.

Rather than ranting and raving about Arbtech, I will simply state our experience, and you can make your own judgement as to why I left a 1 star review.

1) We paid a premium for a fast report. Unfortunately our contact at Arbtech was ill (completely understandable) but the company had no one to take over, and therefore it was weeks late.
2) Arbtech eventually provided a report to our planning officer which, as part of the report said we must provide a "precautionary working method statement". Like most people we didn't know what this was, but unfortunately Arbtech also didn't seem to understand what they had requested, and were therefore unable to provide it. Surely you should only put things in your report if you understand what they are?
3) Whilst communicating with a member of staff at Arbtech about the issues we had faced, we were told "I only like bats, I do not like people". It was mildly threatening and this attitude permeated every aspect of the way they treat their customers.
4) When making what we considered to be completely legitimate complaints, we were told that we were being "threatening" and that Arbtech would no longer deal with us. This is obviously only my opinion, but from my perspective all our complaints were fair, and deserved to be at least listened to.

Anyway, I will leave you to make your own opinion as to whether this was reasonable behaviour for a company, and if you think it is worth working with them.

Very professional and useful piece of work from Dean.

Thank you!

I found the team very organised, communicated well what they were going to do. They were transparent with costings.
When I needed a rapid response they were very quick to assist.
All in all a fabulous experiance using these consultants.

Annabel explained the reasons why the assesment was required & was very knowledgeable in local conservation. She was very easy to talk to

Very helpful, polite and fully committed to finishing the job.

A very professional company. They work with the customer to find solutions to both protect and augment wildlife whilst identifying strategies to permit a development to continue. We had several species of bats roosting in our house and also two maternity roosts. You read horror stories of not being allowed to undertake any work on your own property due to the presence of bats. This is not the case. Employ Arbtech Consulting and they will work with you to find a solution. Don't leave engaging the experts until the eleventh hour. Think ahead and any delays to planning applications can be largely avoided or minimised. Excellent company, who I would absolutely recommend.

Very prompt and professional service, clearly advised all the way through. Happy with the service.

Recommended by our architect for surveys on trees, ecology and bats to send in with planning application.
Good service, excellent communication and all received in good time.

Very helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process. The surveyor was very flexible. He was happy to changed the date for the site visit to accommodate my deadline.

A truly excellent, very professional and prompt service provided by Merry Anderson of Arbtech Consulting Limited in composing a very thorough and comprehensive Mitigation Plan and Method Statement. Thank you so much for all your help and very professional assistance.
