Curtis Environmental is a small group of biologists dedicated to protecting and preserving our natural environment. We eagerly accept small jobs, but we are also capable of managing large, long-term projects. Our rates are very competitive because of low overhead costs, with daily rates nearly half that of larger, well established environmental firms and consultants.

As a special service to non-profit organizations involved in land conservation and stewardship, we provide reduced rates to land trusts and conservation organizations with small budgets. When working in the conservation field, we strive to put protecting and preserving the environment before profitability. Please take a minute to browse over our website and don't hesitate to call or email us if you need assistance or have any questions about our services. We currently provide services in Virginia and the Carolinas.
