Property damage for homeowners with japanese knotweed

Often referred to as the UK’s most destructive weed, Japanese knotweed can cause serious damage to your property.

During the summer months, Japanese knotweed can grow up to 10cm every day, reaching as tall as 10-12 feet high.

Japanese knotweed searches for sources of moisture and, due to its extreme growth, can force its way through paving, walls and more.

It can grow through tarmac, find its way through brick, crack through your tiles and even end up in your house! Check out our social media for more case studies throughout the UK.

Cost of a residential site survey?

We would recommend a survey as this can be as cheap as £260 + VAT depending on the location and size of the garden. By having a survey you can answer confidently when filling out the Ta6, along with no concern for any further litigation as you are paying for an “Expert report” and we have a £5m Professional Indemnity insurance.

 

If the survey does identify Japanese knotweed within the vicinity of the garden we can create a management plan and quote for the work. Along with this we can ensure all necessary paperwork is completed and we can purchase a 10year insurance backed guarantee to ensure the sale goes through unhindered. We are also happy to speak to potential purchases and solicitors on your behalf so that the sale proceeds and you don’t have any additional hassle at what can be a very stressful time.

 

If you would like some advice please give us a ring or drop us an email.
