Specialists in Japanese Knotweed Control Across Surrey

With over 20 years of experience, our technicians are PCA and City & Guilds certified and are continuously trained to ensure the highest industry standards. We focus on delivering professional, efficient, and cost-effective solutions for your knotweed concerns across the South of England.

‘Under section 14 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, it can be an offence to plant or grow certain specified plants in the wild, including Giant Hogweed and Japanese Knotweed. There is no statutory requirement for landowners to remove these plants from their property but it is an offence to allow them to spread to adjacent land.’

Therefore, it is essential to take the proper steps to prevent the spread of Japanese knotweed, a highly invasive plant that can cause significant damage to properties. This fast-growing plant can penetrate concrete, tarmac, and even building foundations, leading to expensive repairs. Its presence can also reduce property values, making it difficult to sell or mortgage your home.
