There are many different ways of treating and removing Japanese Knotweed and we provide the most effective solutions, both in terms of cost and complete, permanent removal.
We can provide a 10 year, insurance backed warranty for all work that we carry out using our proven methods of eradication that we have used for many years throughout the UK and Ireland.

Featured on the BBC and widely recognised as industry experts, we are always leading the way in new innovative solutions and carrying out up to date research in the field. Please visit the research section of this website for further information on recent studies.
We take our responsibility to the environment very seriously and work hard to make sure that we offset our carbon footprint and adhere strictly to the Environment Agency code's of practice for operating with invasive weeds which is essential to prevent further spread. The weed spreads by propagules which means that any part of the plant has the ability to regrow into a new plant and a new infestation. Due to the poor practices of a lot of removal companies the problem has worsened. We pride ourselves on clean, safe removal.
