Effective removal of Japanese Knotweed is particularly difficult, as even a small piece of knotweed root left in the ground can quickly grow into a new plant. Weed control using retail weed killers is rarely effective, and it can take several seasons of backbreaking work before you know whether your efforts in managing and eradicating Japanese Knotweed have been successful. Identification, survey and chemical spraying and treatment of this alien invader is best left to specialists as there is legislation in force to cover disposal of the contaminated waste.

We can provide a 10 year, insurance backed warranty for all work that we carry out using our proven methods of knotweed eradication that we have used for many years throughout the UK and Ireland.

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 Japanese Knotweed contractors 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.
