Why Japanese Knotweed in Reading is a Serious Issue

Japanese Knotweed (Fallopia japonica) is one of the UK’s most invasive plant species. It spreads rapidly through its underground rhizome system and can cause:

  • – Damage to walls, foundations, patios, and drainage systems

  • – Delays in development and planning approvals

  • – Difficulty obtaining mortgages or selling property

  • – Legal liability if it spreads to neighbouring land

Case Study:

Our team recently completed a survey of Japanese Knotweed in Reading, where we identified an active infestation in the rear garden of a residential property, growing in the top left corner next to a shed. Detection allowed us to produce a tailored treatment plan and prevent further spread — a great reminder of how essential a professional survey is.
