Professional weed treatment near Tullow

Professional weed treatment: what the job involves

Controlling weeds in lawns, beds, driveways and paving with professional herbicides, applied by a DAFM-registered professional user — or by non-chemical means such as hot water or burning-off where that suits. It includes invasive plants such as Japanese knotweed, which need a multi-year plan.

How long it takes: A visit of an hour or two for most homes, with a return a few weeks later; Japanese knotweed takes several seasons of treatment.

What professional weed treatment in Tullow costs, and why

What jobs on Talqero came to

Not enough comparable jobs yet to publish a range here. Talqero shows a price range only once at least five comparable jobs, agreed prices or offers exist — a range from fewer would describe a handful of jobs, not the market. Post your job and compare the offers you get.

What affects the price

  • Area and surface: lawn, beds, paving or gravel
  • Type of weed — invasive species need specialist plans
  • Chemical or non-chemical method
  • Number of visits and follow-ups
  • Removal of dead growth or soil
  • VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.

What to ask before you choose

  • What sub-base and drainage will you put down?
  • Who removes the soil and waste, and with what permit?
  • What guarantee is there on the work?
  • Is VAT included?
