Waterbody Design & Management
Experienced Aquatic Environmental Consultants
Due to their aesthetic and environmental enrichment, waterbodies are an important feature of green spaces and as part of new green infrastructure. At Gavia Environmental, we work closely with project developers, contractors and landscape architects to provide reliable, practical engineering and environmental solutions to projects.
High Quality Ecological and Hydrological Design
Our ecologists and hydrologists are highly experienced in the design of new freshwater and marine waterbodies, as well as the on-going maintenance and rehabilitation of existing ponds and lakes.
Our water engineering consultants have advised clients on: waterbody design and rehabilitation, water quality assessment, habitat enhancement, wildlife protection, sustainable urban drainage (SuDS) and flood risk across various property, commercial, energy, leisure and marine developments.
And because our unique infusion of in-house ecology and hydrology competencies is underpinned by engineering insight, our designs are robust, environmentally sound, and importantly, can be built.
