“We are so pleased that the bamboo has gone – Aiden and his team were lovely and we felt very confident that they knew exactly what they were doing. The survey beforehand was very helpful and informative and it’s reassuring to know that they will be back to follow up.”

“Since engaging Environet UK in 2020 they have been easy to deal with and very professional. They were also very helpful in prepairing the Insurance Backed Guarantee at short notice and in time for the sale of my property. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone.
