KNOTWEED EXCAVATION SERVICES for Southampton

Excavation is the best option if you need Japanese knotweed removed for good.

Japanese knotweed is a highly resilient invasive species of weed that is capable of growing new shoots from its root network. These special roots are known as rhizomes, and even a tiny piece as small as 0.5g is capable of allowing the infestation to regrow. With root systems that bury deep into the ground, excavation of the contaminated soil is the best way to completely remove the infestation.

Southampton’s Knotweed successfully CONTROLLED with TREATMENTs

Chemical Treatment using a special herbicide will control knotweed growth, and stop the spread. It does this by exhausting the plant’s ability to grow, forcing it into a dormant state and can be applied by spraying, stem injection or leaf wiping.

Over the course of the plan, the treatment programme will prevent the plant producing aerial growth and additionally, prevent the rhizomes from growing further. If the knotweed area is likely to be disturbed physical removal of the knotweed may be required instead.

Our herbicide programmes are packaged within a  Knotweed Management Plan (KMP), which comes with an Insurance Backed Guarantee.

WHAT DOES IT COST TO GET RID OF KNOTWEED?

The average cost to remove Japanese knotweed in Southampton varies, depending on the methods involved and the size of the affected areas. If it is identified and dealt with promptly, the costs of removing Japanese knotweed can be kept to a minimum. Long-term herbicide treatment is usually the most cost-effective control method. Our professionally delivered herbicide treatment programme will provide successful chemical control of Japanese knotweed within a period of 3-7 years.

Excavation of Japanese knotweed costs more than herbicide treatment due to labour, materials, waste removal and reinstatement costs. However, it ensures complete Japanese knotweed removal allowing free use or development of the property. We provide cost-efficient excavation due to our extensive experience whilst minimising waste volumes.

Following our professional surveys we will provide you with a no-nonsense, comprehensive report with no-obligation recommendations and quotes.

In this case study, we look at why cell burial was the best option for eradication of Japanese knotweed. In May 2018 Japanese Knotweed Ltd (JKL) were contacted to discuss plans to develop a large plot affected by Japanese knotweed in Southampton, Hampshire. The site possessed large areas of Japanese knotweed, which we had been chemically treating since 2015 under a knotweed management plan for the previous landowner.
