Japanese knotweed eradication

Once you have put a knotweed treatment plan in place on your site, you will want to ensure it leads to a full and lasting removal of the Japanese knotweed from your site.

The fact that Japanese knotweed is such a robust weed has not only allowed it to grow extensively across the UK, but also means that full eradication of Japanese knotweed from a site must be done carefully by experts. As the weed can regrow from even the smallest root fragment, it is vital that every last trace of the invasive plant is removed from the site.

Equally as important is for any knotweed material removed to be properly disposed of. For example, in cases where root and soil has been excavated, this will need to be taken to a licenced landfill facility, to ensure the weed and its fragment do not cause it to spread to other areas. Only with the expert handling that our experts bring can you be certain the knotweed has been safely and permanently removed without risk.

Japanese knotweed is highly destructive and can cause significant damage to a property. If identified early enough, then damage to a property may be limited. However, if the knotweed invasion is well established, the damage caused by growth (especially the underground roots) might be extensive, and could even affect the foundations of any buildings present.

While it is not illegal to have Japanese knotweed on your property, it is against the law to allow it to spread. This means that you could be prosecuted if you allow it to spread from your property to a neighbour or in the wild.

Removal by our Japanese knotweed specialists will ensure that you don’t face a potential lawsuit, and won’t come across difficulties should you be looking to sell your property in future. The presence of Japanese knotweed on any property or land can adversely affect its value and present problems both to a seller or a buyer seeking a mortgage on a knotweed affected property.
