Japanese Knotweed Taking Over Your Property?

With the potential to send house prices plummeting by 10% and severely damage building structures, Japanese knotweed can be an incredibly serious matter for homeowners.

Due to its fast-growing nature, it can spread quickly, making it notoriously difficult to treat. So, it’s essential that homeowners are aware of what the plant is, how to spot it and how to stop it.

So what types of Japanese Knotweed claims are there?

Has your property been invaded by Japanese Knotweed? You could be entitled to compensation

Spread Onto Your Land

Japanese knotweed has spread onto your land because another landowner hasn’t controlled it on their land.

This might be a neighbour or a larger organisation like Network Rail.

In such a case you may have a claim for damages.

Undeclared On Survey

You have purchased a property and obtained a home buyers survey. It subsequently transpires that the property had knotweed, but the surveyor failed to pick this up.

In these cases, you would have a claim against the surveyor.

Undeclared on Home Buyers Report

You have purchased a property, but the seller has failed to tell you that they had a problem with Japanese Knotweed.

In these cases you would have a claim against the seller.
