With over 25 years of experience, Cain Bio-Engineering is an established environmentally-friendly specialist delivering river restoration, erosion control and wetland creation projects. Over the past few decades, we have worked with a wide variety of clients and designed and built numerous projects, large and small, across a diverse array of aquatic environments - a selection of which can be found in our project archive.

Because no project is quite the same, each requires an individual and customised approach. We're always here to help. We know that it can be daunting to make important decisions about the renovation, repair or installation of aquatic features for your home or land, particularly if you don't feel you have sufficient knowledge. However, we are here to guide you through the process and to help you make the right, informed decision.

We employ in-house Engineering and Design Consultants, together with a skilled Operations Teams, who will help you understand the processes, the costs and the timeframe to implement and deliver our designs for your needs, throughout the UK.

When the Water Authority dredged several miles of pristine chalk stream habitat on Wiltshire's River Ebble in 1984, Simon Cain put aside his fly rod and set about trying to rectify the damage.
During the ensuing period, Cain apprenticed himself to the study of chalk stream restoration, environmental river engineering and fluvial geomorphology leading to the establishment of Cain Bio-Engineering Ltd.
Over 25 years have elapsed since that first attempt at habitat improvement on the dredged river Ebble, followed by Simon's first pioneering river restoration project in 1987 at Ballington Manor on the river Wylye.
The Cain Bio-Engineering team has over 25 years experience, including the design and construction of chalk stream restoration; aquatic infrastructure (assessment & repair); catchment-scale landscaping; wetland creation; water-garden design; stillwater and wildlife pond installation and care; project management, supervision and implementation; topographic surveys; and, project design.
Cain Bio-Engineering has extensive knowledge of river processes, structures, and ecology.
The team has a diverse background including environmental scientists, geographers and engineers providing a wide range of consultancy services.
Cain Bio-Engineering is an established aquatic habitat specialist working on a diverse range and size of project.

We have worked with a diverse range of clients, such as riparian homeowners, river managers, community groups, utility companies, and Highways England, on rivers that include the River Avon, River Thames, and River Mersey.

With an impressive 25 years' worth of experience delivering river restoration projects around the UK, including many on the most revered, protected and prestigious chalk river environments on the planet, we know just what it takes to deliver successful river restoration works.
From our earliest professional project delivered on the River Wylye in 1989, Cain Bio-Engineering has gone on to amass an impressive array of river restoration projects, including major works on some of the world's most prestigious chalk streams and their tributaries across the UK.

We have amassed over 25 years' experience delivering erosion control projects in a wide range of aquatic environments including rivers, streams, lakes, canals and Inter-Tidal estuaries.
Erosion is a natural process that is essential in maintaining a healthy river and Inter-Tidal system.
However, where it threatens man-made infrastructure or assets, sensitive and creative intervention is often required.
