Surrey’s Struggle with Japanese Knotweed
Surrey battles a widespread knotweed challenge, with infestations thriving in urban and rural areas like Guildford. Growing up to 10cm daily, it poses a critical threat to Surrey property owners.Here’s why it demands attention:
- Structural Damage – Its resilient rhizome system (roots) can breach tarmac and exploit weaknesses in concrete, drainage, and building foundations.
- Property Value Loss – Lenders frequently reject mortgages for infested sites, reducing worth by up to 5-10%.
- Legal Obligations – UK laws require halting its spread to adjacent properties, or you risk fines up to £2,500 or costly lawsuits.
- Environmental Harm – It smothers native flora, impairing Surrey’s parks, riverbanks, and heritage sites like Guildford Castle and the River Wey.
- Escalating Costs – Delaying response worsens damage early intervention saves thousands.
