Commercial Japanese Knotweed Removal
The UK has strict laws governing the removal of Knotweed. If you are spreading or disposing of Knotweed, you may be prosecuted. You may also be liable for damage costs.
Act fast and get the right treatment plan for all commercial properties.
If during a building project, renovation or land clearance, you suspect that you have unearthed Japanese Knotweed, then there are legal and financial issues that you need to consider. Early action to treat the area is vital if you are to avoid excessive remediation costs, possible structural damage to buildings and services or claims for compensation.
If you think you’ve unearthed Japanese Knotweed during a building project, renovation, or land clearance – act quickly. There are legal and financial issues to consider and early action is vital to preventing:
- Remediation costs
- Structural damage to buildings and services
- Claims for compensation.
If Knotweed is growing adjacent to walls and buildings, the roots could damage the foundations or the entire structure by exploiting the cracks and weaknesses.
Pressure from the growing roots can severely damage buildings and weak structural points.

Commercial Questions
Finding Knotweed on a commercial plot of land can be a massive issue. The Knotweed plant or ground containing any part of the plant is classed as controlled waste. This means that removing the plant alone is not an option.
Removing Knotweed from any site is an offence under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. It is an invasive weed, and the roots can extend into the ground – meaning that they will re-emerge many years later. If left to grow, Knotweed may cause damage to surrounding buildings.
We provide a professional, no-nonsense, approach. Get in touch to discuss a site inspection. If we find Knotweed, we will offer a custom management plan for you.
Let us help you to take control of the plant.

How long does Knotweed treatment take?
We take up to three years to eradicate Knotweed after a treatment plan begins.
After three years of treatment, we monitor the site for at least a further two years to prevent regrowth. These visits take place from September, at the end of the growth season.
Following two years of no regrowth, a certificate of eradication is issued and our guarantee begins.
Are your treatment procedures environmentally friendly?
Although we use chemicals to treat and remove Japanese Knotweed, we follow strict guidelines on the chemicals used. Chemical treatment is never used for cosmetic purposes and any chemicals used do not remain in the soil for prolonged periods.
We don’t spray unless weather conditions are appropriate, so chemical use is kept to a minimum. We also minimise wash-off into the soil and watercourses whenever possible.
“What a fantastic and professional company. Knotweed discovered on rough land opposite my garage in March which halted my mortgage application. Anita and Phil were so supportive through an extremely stressful time and because of their services I have now been able to sort the mortgage finally, I can’t thank them or recommend them enough.”
“After almost pulling all my hair out and worrying about that dreaded knotweed on my property I gave Anita a call and she took all the stress out of the situation and got the problem treated and dealt with for me. Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Put an elderly friend in touch with Anita and her team regarding the garden at their property. It was the dreaded knotweed, Anita’s knowledge and the ability to calm an elderly person and assure them things will be ok was incredible. To an elderly person this was everything but after the treatment it’s now sorted. Thanks a million Anita, I can see why you have won an award in Carmarthenshire. Keep up the good work.”
