Bamboo is a common garden plant, it is fast growing and has a distinctive look. However, the quick growth of bamboo and the pattern the roots grow in, can cause damage to patios, driveways, fence lines and other vegetation in both yours and your neighbours’ garden. Japanese Knotweed Expert have been dealing with Bamboo removal in Manchester and for over 25 years.Â
We have been dealing with the removal of invasive weeds, including bamboo removal in Stockport and Manchester for over 25 years. Our recommendation is to eradicate all growth of Invasive Bamboo from a site. By excavating and removing the bamboo, this will ensure any traces of the plant are also removed to help prevent it from returning.
Our method of excavation and removal of bamboo in Stockport involves the bamboo would firstly be being cut to ground level. Following this the canes would be disposed of off-site. All of the rhizomes from underground would then be removed and disposed of off-site.
Once all of the bamboo has been removed from site, our team will level the ground with fresh material leaving it ready to be re-landscaped. **Please note any landscaping features affected by the removal works will not be reinstated by ourselves. This cost will be bore by the client**
Post excavation: we provide 4 follow up visits with herbicidal treatments included to ensure the long term removal. If any regrowth reoccurs after the excavation this will be chemically treated unless stated otherwise.
**Please note that the above is just an example of a typical excavation project. Every job is individual therefore your quote will be tailored to your requirements and those of the site.**
Bamboo falls in to two categories (based on the root growth pattern) – clumping and running bamboo. Clumping bamboo tends to grow to be thicker and, should you wish for it to be removed, the entire root ball would need to be removed. We recommend excavating this type of bamboo carefully to ensure this has been completely removed.
Bamboo can fall in to two categories (based on the root growth pattern):
Â
1. Clumping Bamboo –Â tends to grow to be thicker and, should you wish for it to be removed, the entire root ball would need to be removed. We recommend excavating this type of bamboo carefully to ensure this has been completely removed.
2. Running Bamboo –Â Running bamboo has a root pattern that spreads out widely and is more likely to cause structrual damage to anything located in the surrounding area. The roots from this bamboo are also more likely to cross boundaries. To remove this, we would recommend a more thorough excavation or chemical treatment to eradicate the plant entirely.
