RECENT PROJECT

CAREFULLY CONSIDERED BAMBOO EXCAVATION

BEFORE & AFTER: A reduced level excavation of Bamboo, Japanese knotweed and some Variegated yellow archangel from a residential property. On this occasion the invasive Montbretia was requested by our client to be retained.

The excavated soils and materials were relocated to a temporary stockpile, then removed to landfill with a horizontal root barrier installed and returned vertically to the boundary. All Bamboo material and contaminated soils were removed. As you can see the finished result was a clean area where the Bamboo was growing but with the plants the client wanted left protected.

It was a bit of a tight squeeze to get the digger onto site! But the result was nice and tidy.

Our top clients

what are invasive plants?

We treat and remove plants that are known to be invasive and, if left uncontrolled become problematic for homeowners, commercial businesses, and organisations. These are species that spread wildly, encroaching onto other properties. Currently the most common invasive species include Bamboo, Buddleia and Giant hogweed. 

Our Amenity Weed Management services help Local Authorities to control or eradicate amenity weeds such as Ragwort, Rosebay willowherb and Himalayan balsam. These are weeds that commonly grow on public open spaces, footpaths, highways and urban areas.

We do not treat or remove common residential garden weeds. For the full list of weeds we control hit the button below.

TARGET WEEDS

Strandzha Zelenica or Rhododendron ponticum, an evergreen shrub with fresh purple blosom, grows in the shadows of the trees, in the shadows of centuries-old mountain beech trees.
