If you are a building developer we strongly recommend you have your development site checked for the presence of knotweed BEFORE the site is cleared or the ground is disturbed by demolition, soil sampling, etc. Identifying and isolating the knotweed early will provide more options for treatment, keep costs down, prevent unnecessary delays or stoppages to construction works and ensure you remain within the law.
