We have a large PV array to generate our own electricity and we collect rainwater for irrigation use. We have recently introduced an exciting new initiative into our professional services to ensure each of our projects are as environmentally friendly and beneficial as possible. Our Ecology Rating Award (E.R.A) used to evaluate each of our projects against a carefully developed grading system, covering a range of elements affecting environmental impact including material management, planting considerations, wildlife, conservation and water management.Approved contractors of the Arboricultural Association, Nicholsons are also accredited with CHAS and Safe-contractor.
