Turf translocation is the process of carefully removing sections of turf, including soil, grasses, and native vegetation, and relocating them to a new site. This method is widely used in habitat restoration, landscape construction, and ecological mitigation projects, as it preserves important plant species, maintains soil health, and protects existing wildlife habitats. Turf translocation is particularly effective for maintaining biodiversity and ensuring that valuable ecosystems continue to thrive even when land is being developed or modified.

I wanted to tell you how impressed I am about the repairs done to the quay in Kingsbridge. A very professional and thorough job. You’ve really made the new build fit in well with the original and from what I hear will be completed on time. Well done!
