Japanese Knotweed (Fallopia Japonica) may look small and contained but don't underestimate the scale of the problem it can potentially cause. The plant can extend 2–3 metres high and up to two metres deep and will exploit any weakness in the fabric of a building in its quest for water and light. It will push its way through expansion joints in concrete, cavity walls, weaknesses in the broken mortar between paving slabs or bricks and can also damage drains and sewers. While structural damage is rare in most residential situations, if left unchecked, a mature infestation of Japanese Knotweed can become critical.
