Why Knotweed Is a Real Issue in Nottingham
Nottingham’s mix of historic housing and ongoing urban regeneration creates the perfect conditions for knotweed to spread.
High-risk areas include:
- The Meadows and Hyson Green, where knotweed often spreads between terrace gardens
- Colwick and Sneinton, where riverside conditions and older infrastructure make eradication more complex
- Redevelopment areas like the Southern Gateway and Canal Quarter, where ground disturbance brings dormant rhizomes to life
Knotweed damages brickwork, patios, retaining walls, and underground pipes. It also poses a major risk to property sales and planning applications.


Why You Should Act Now
Mortgage delays are common in Nottingham
Without a treatment plan, many lenders will refuse finance or delay exchange.
Developments can be halted mid-build
We’ve seen contractors in Nottingham forced to pause work after discovering knotweed. Early surveys prevent costly surprises.
Delays make removal more expensive
The deeper the roots go, the more costly the treatment becomes. Early action keeps your costs lower.
