Environmental Assessment & Analysis
Simmonds & Bristow can help you with:


Understanding the science behind your operating environment requires specialist support.

S&B has a team of professional scientists dedicated to assisting at every stage of your development and operation.

Meet Our Engineers and Scientists - Fiona Milnes and Linda Nyamaswe
As the COVID-19 restrictions began to uplift, an island resort’s desalination plant struggled to produce enough flow and presented a possible risk of disgruntled guests.

The Simmonds & Bristow’s O&M team, Chief Water Engineer and Senior Plumber were able to restore the plant to its original design flow without causing a major disruption to guests and business operations.

Guard Your Guests from a Smelly Sewer
The Simmonds & Bristow team arrived to find a very old, poorly maintained treatment plant which needed a good clean out, some minor repairs and some updated monitoring instruments.

Sewage treatment plants operate around the clock. Failure to engage specialists to regularly inspect, maintain and monitor these plants can result in structural, instrumental and operational deficiencies going unnoticed.
 
Have you had your water or sewage treatment plant checked lately? Talk to Simmonds & Bristow to ensure a long life for your plant.
