This invasive plant already costs the UK £1.7 billion each year. The weed spreads due to natural or human causes. Growth during the growing season is rapid and can cause damage to the building, foundation and can lift flags. However, it can even be spread during treatment, this is why it is important to use a Japanese Knotweed Expert to eradicate this weed.

Therefore we at Japanese Knotweed Expert Ltd are PCA qualified surveyors and hold the necessary qualifications to treat Japanese Knotweed throughout the UK. In addition, we also ensure that we wear the appropriate uniform/protective equipment so that the Knotweed doesn’t spread onto other areas or locations.

Almost 30% of our work in the last 12 months has come from eradicating Japanese Knotweed in Shropshire. Therefore, we urge property owners in this area to identify Japanese Knotweed and be aware of the legal implications.
