Root Barrier
Root barriers serve as a critical defence mechanism at Alien Plant Control, effectively halting the advance of invasive species such as Japanese Knotweed and Bamboo. These robust membranes function like impenetrable shields, containing roots and rhizomes, backed with a 25-year manufacturer warranty. These barriers provide reliable protection without excessive costs of full excavation to landfill, and can be ideal for preventing boundary disputes with neighbours.
Barrier Applications
Installed along fence lines to depths of 1-2 metres, they are an ideal defence for many invasive plants that may be causing boundary disputes and encroachment. The membrane is incredibly tough and can be used in almost any site/garden.
The product can also be used for bamboo containment, like a pot in the ground to retain the plants spread, allowing you to enjoy the plant without the fear of underground spread.
We have many specialist types of root barrier depending on the specific conditions on-site. Typically, we use a non-permeable vertical barrier for boundary protection. We can also consider a copper sulphate lined permeable membrane that is installed horizontally, typically for areas that are unsafe to excavate - like underground services or foundations.
Our experts ensure seamless installation, and back our work with lengthy guarantees that include free & unlimited monitoring visits. Early action is crucial to get ahead of this alien plant and its fast spread, get in touch today for a free consultation.
