In-Stream Restoration, Simplified
Services

A successful restoration project starts with a good plan. I offer free over-the-phone consultations and can visit your site to assess the most appropriate restoration strategies. I have experience implementing lower tech, process-based restoration, large scale resetting and a range of other modern, system-based restoration techniques
