Site supervision

If you already have access to machinery and labour on your development site, our site supervision service provides expert guidance and oversight to ensure Japanese knotweed is handled and removed correctly. Working alongside your existing team, we help maintain compliance, prevent contamination and deliver cost-effective results.

What our site supervision service provides

Our experienced site managers support your team through every stage of the knotweed removal or management process. A typical supervision package includes:

Method statement and risk assessment for the planned works
Toolbox talk for all staff who may come into contact with knotweed
Comprehensive briefing for personnel involved in excavation or handling activities
On-site supervision throughout the works by an experienced site manager
Assurance of legal compliance and adherence to best practice
Supply of suitable root barrier where required
Post-treatment management plan and an insurance-backed guarantee underwritten by an AA- rated insurer

Supervision for herbicide-based management

On sites where ground will not be disturbed and herbicide treatment is a viable option, we can supervise the installation of knotweed exclusion zones. This includes setting out fenced or marked boundaries, installing signage and using hazard tape to prevent accidental disturbance.

Supervision around treatment areas

We also provide experienced operations managers to oversee groundworks taking place near knotweed treatment zones. Their role is to ensure that rhizome is not inadvertently disturbed during construction activities, reducing the risk of spread and future regrowth.
