Commercial Japanese Knotweed Removal

Phlorum is your fully-guaranteed solution for commercial Japanese knotweed removal services. We are founding members of the Property Care Association Invasive Weed Control Group and the working group that provided guidance for the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors on surveying Japanese knotweed and assessing its risk to property. Our co-founder, Dr. Paul Beckett, is a member of the Expert Witness Institute and has significant experience as a Japanese knotweed expert witness.

If you suspect that you have a Japanese knotweed infestation on a commercial property or development site, then there are legal and financial issues that you need to be aware of.

Early action to treat Japanese knotweed by an experienced specialist in commercial Japanese knotweed control on building sites and commercial premises is essential if you are to avoid excessive remediation costs, potential prosecution, claims for compensation and/or structural damage to buildings and services.

If Japanese knotweed identification occurs early in a construction project, it allows a wider range of knotweed treatment options to be considered in order to eradicate it.

Additionally, if knotweed is found at the due diligence stage of a property transaction, it can allow substantial price reductions to be agreed through negotiations to offset remediation costs or by accounting for any diminution in value caused by the knotweed’s presence.

All of our work is guaranteed for at least 10 years by an industry-leading insurance-backed guarantee package.
