When advising clients, Fairbrass has a significant advantage—his background as a builder gives him unique insight into how ecology impacts development. This practical experience helps him guide clients toward the best possible outcomes.
Specializing in protected species and bat ecology, Fairbrass has extensive experience in site surveying and mitigation. He is our go-to expert for development licences for bats and has played a key role in designing and implementing numerous bat mitigation projects, including those for nationally significant roosts and rare species.
Outside of ecology, Fairbrass is a passionate restorer of machinery, particularly vintage stationary engines. His impressive collection includes a Lister Auto-Truck—a quirky monowheel tractor! He also enjoys building machines in his shed, and his innovative design for a ram pump made from household parts has garnered nearly a million views on YouTube: Watch here.
