Japanese Knotweed Removal in Rochdale

Japanese Knotweed in Rochdale is becoming more of an issue. It is not illegal to grow Japanese knotweed in your garden, however, if you allow it to then grow on to your neighbour’s garden this is classed as encroachment. Encroachment of Japanese knotweed on to a neighbouring property can open you up to legal action as this is a civil issue not a criminal issue.

Removal of Japanese Knotweed in Rochdale:

Cases have ranged from just over £10,000 to in excess of £200,000. In this particular case we were called out and survey the property and it was immediately clear that the Japanese knotweed had encroached from our client’s garden into the neighbouring garden.

 

In this case both parties were amicable and were both happy to pay for the eradication of the Japanese knotweed in their respective gardens in Rochdale near Manchester. To keep the cost down, we were able to carry out one survey and recommend a single “Management plan” that covered both properties. Additionally, we were able to purchase one Insurance backed Guarantee with both names on, this also kept the price down as only one policy had to be purchased. This cost just over £3,500 for all the paperwork and Insurance backed guarantee. So, both parties were very happy!

Treatment Plan for Removal of Japanese Knotweed in Rochdale:

We are very commercially minded and aim to do the very best for our clients.

The treatment plan lasts three years with three visits each year throughout the growing season. Following this, there is then a further two years of monitoring to ensure there is no re-growth of the Japanese knotweed. The chemicals we use are significantly stronger than those that can be purchased by the public. When treating the Japanese Knotweed in Rochdale we prefer to inject as a first option, this is then followed by spraying where injection is not possible. The is because evidence shows that injection is generally more effective than spraying especially if the application takes place on a damp day.
