The site visits, quote process and treatment plan so far have all gone very smoothly. The team members that have dealt with our case, both in the office and on the ground, have been outstanding: efficient, competent and informative, as well as friendly and helpful. The site report provided by them formed the basis of our claim against our surveyors who missed the knotweed in the original survey when we bought the house: we were successful in settling with them regarding compensation for this . I can thoroughly recommend Japanese Knotweed Eradication as a personable company who will ease your knotweed worries in a very professional manner and always remain a pleasure to work with." > Source: BeckYork (5.0, via Which? Trusted Traders) > "I contracted this company as I was putting my flat on the market and my next door neighbours (and to a lesser extent my garden) had a Japanese knotweed problem. The expert advice given throughout by Gary and Steve has been outstanding. They provided a treatment plan and draft guarantee paperwork to show prospective purchasers, and they have also been on hand to deal with questions and put prospective buyers at ease. After season 1 (2 full treatments), they cleared the dead weeds and next door is looking great. The quote received was in-line, if not better than the average for London based on my research. Unfortunately I had two offers for my property which both fell through, but this seems to be a general mortgage industry challenge and is of no fault of Gary and the team who are doing a great job. I fully expect the situation to be much improved this season after the treatment and control measures they put in place last year I hope to put the flat back on the market again soon, this time with demonstrable progress being made. I also had another part of this company landscape my garden and I’m very pleased with the results. Nice guys, who know what they are talking about and I’m happy to recommend their work." > Source: Granger (5.0, via Which?

Trusted Traders - Monday–Sunday: 9am–5pm ## Before you hire a landscaper _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later. - Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways. - Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts. - Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact. - Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work, and that they are current. ## Contact - Phone: 020 8769 7321 - Website: https://www.japaneseknotweed.london --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/japanese-knotweed-eradication-ltd Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source and is cross-checked.
