What our clients say
Reviews
Richard responded to my email asking…
“Richard responded to my email asking for identification from pictures of the plants, immediately. This service is free of charge. All they ask for is a donation to a charity, which is really nice of them. Would definitely recommend them.”
Lovely company
“Lovely company. I am buying a flat in a high risk japanese knotweed area and spotted some suspicious looking shoots in the garden. Emailed photos to Environet who responded super speedily to reassure me it wasn’t knotweed. They asked for a donation to one of their justgiving charities instead of charging a fee for identification which is such a lovely idea!”
I contacted Environet Uk to discuss my concern about Japanese knotweed.
“I was advised how their identification system operated and was asked to send clear photographic images by email, which I did. Within 3 hours, I received a response. Very impressed by the professional manner this was dealt with. Thank you.”
Fantastic identification service!
“Fantastic identification service! I received an email response 1 hour after I sent the company an email with photos. I was advised that the weeds in the photos were not Japanese knotweed which was a huge relief.”

Japanese knotweed and other invasive plants have become a common sight in the North of England since their introduction in the 19th century, colonising our gardens, parks, verges, countryside and waterways. Japanese knotweed is the most problematic, but other plants such as bamboo, horsetail, giant hogweed, Himalayan balsam and cotoneaster can also cause considerable problems.
Towns and cities with a strong industrial heritage tend to be most seriously affected, such as Bolton, Blackburn, Liverpool, Sheffield, Greater Manchester and Newcastle, although the plant is also commonly found thriving in rural locations and suburbs across the North.
Japanese knotweed can damage property, lead to expensive repairs and spread to neighbouring properties, creating complicated legal issues. It can even cause home values to plummet and make them difficult to sell. We have successfully helped hundreds of homeowners across the region overcome problems that Japanese knotweed has caused on their properties.
Bamboo also spreads, its rhizomes extending 30 feet or more, with new shoots appearing through lawns and patios. Where this occurs in an adjacent property it can result in neighbour disputes which can ultimately lead to legal action.
