One specialist – one contract
When both contaminants are encountered, coordinating separate specialist contractors can add time, cost and complexity to a project. Our multi-contaminant ground removal service allows us to manage the works under one contract and one point of contact.
This can help to:
- Reduce project management time and contractor coordination
- Streamline the excavation and removal process
- Reduce the potential for programme delays caused by coordinating separate specialist teams
- Provide a single, accountable contractor for the contaminated ground works
- Deliver a more efficient and potentially more cost-effective solution
Our specialist teams can coordinate the excavation, segregation and removal of ground affected by Japanese knotweed and asbestos, providing a controlled approach from excavation through to disposal.
Getting the information you need at the right time in the decision process is key. If you have a current or upcoming project involving Japanese knotweed, asbestos-contaminated ground, or both use the contact form above to speak to an expert.

Case study: Adapting to site challenges, and finding asbestos
Removal of Japanese knotweed and asbestos contaminated ground for a large council – via Cosan-CC.
What started off as a typical knotweed removal excavation contract turned into a more complicated project involving asbestos and general waste removal. The team had to think quickly and adapt the brief to ensure the result was a solution the client would be happy with – and of course a clean site ready to be developed.
