How Our Consultancy Works
Previously we have installed reedbeds, typically at half the price of alternative and substitute treatment systems.

Being over 65, installing systems has become more difficult. So the idea is for Customers to buy materials, book the digger, and to build the reedbed. I can be there to make sure the reedbed is built as per design, without anyone cutting corners, or adding their own ill advised "improvements".

I can help provide information to help gain "Authority" approval. I can also help in future, should problems arise. An expert is someone who knows what to do when things go wrong.

So why should the customer choose to buy Consultant Advice. A typical 100m² reedbed can effectively filter 10,000 Litres ( 10m³ ) each day. Installation price is £9000. Consultancy only price is £3000.

All prices are calculated as follows:

Sizes and Prices

• Flows to be a little and often and NOT everything all at once
• Do not allow "Gunk" to smother the reedbed
• For flat land, flows will need to be pumped. A pump and manhole will add £250 to the price quoted
• All Reedbeds can discharge into a Living Soakaway, and not directly into a water course. This helps win approval for the projects.

Tank Prices for Comparison
Compare the price of a Reedbed system to Tank based systems. (Google Search Prices of 2016).
