Our story

Two decades of
honest, local practice.

Eastern Counties Knotweed Ltd is a small, owner-operated business that has worked across the East of England for over twenty years. Paul covers Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire — when you call, you speak to the person who will be on site.

We choose to stay small. It means we know every job we're running, we don't pass work to subcontractors, and we can usually be on site inside 24 hours of an enquiry.

We work for homeowners, landlords, estate agents, solicitors, property developers and local authorities — anywhere knotweed is causing a sale to stall, a build to stop, or a homeowner to lose sleep.

“We'd rather lose a job than oversell one. If you don't have knotweed, we'll tell you.
Paul Grahame · Founder

Our practice

How we work,
on the page and on site.

Three non-negotiables sit behind every quote we issue and every programme we sign off.

Disciplined

20+ years of military service

Two decades in uniform shape how we run every job — methodical planning, clear communication, accountability for the work and respect for the people on site.

Qualified

PA1 & PA6 certified, fully insured

Every herbicide application is carried out by an operator holding current PA1 and PA6 spray certification. Full public liability cover throughout.

Documented

Honest, lender-ready paperwork

Every job recorded in a written Knotweed Management Plan with dated site photography, herbicide records and a signed completion certificate on sign-off — no insurance-backed guarantee sold on top.

Where we work

From the Wash to the
Bedfordshire hedgerows.

Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire as standard. We'll travel further across the East of England for larger commercial or development sites — just ask.
