What Is Included
Pest & Weed Control, Covered Properly
Licensed treatment applied by a PA1 certified operator. We treat what needs treating, correctly identified first, and reach for cultural fixes before chemical ones.
Weed control
Treatment of beds, paths, driveways, and hard standing.
Lawn weed treatment
Selective treatment that takes out the weed and leaves the grass.
Pest identification
Correct diagnosis before anything is applied.
Plant protection
Targeted treatment for aphid, scale, vine weevil, and box caterpillar.
Disease management
Blackspot, mildew, rust, and honey fungus assessment.
Preventative programmes
Scheduled treatment where a recurring problem justifies it.
Our Approach
High Standards. Every Time.
Identification comes first. A great deal of garden spraying is done against the wrong target, at the wrong time of year, at a dose that was never going to work. Knowing whether you are looking at honey fungus or simple drought stress changes the answer entirely.
We hold a PA1 licence, which means treatments are applied legally, at correct dose, with proper regard for pollinators, pets, children, and watercourses. Where a cultural fix will do the job, we will recommend that instead, because the result lasts longer.

Common Questions
Pest & Weed Control, Answered
Is it safe around pets and children?
Applied correctly, yes. We will tell you exactly how long to stay off treated areas, and we plan applications around your household.
What is PA1?
The licence required to apply professional plant protection products in the UK. It covers safe handling, correct dosing, and legal responsibilities including protection of watercourses.
Do you always use chemicals?
No. Where mulching, hand weeding, improved airflow, or a change in cultivation will fix the problem, that is what we will recommend.
Can you deal with Japanese knotweed?
Knotweed needs a specialist contractor working to a documented management plan, often with an insurance backed guarantee. We will identify it and point you to the right people.
Where we work. Cal Verde is based in Rochester and covers Kent and South East London, from the Medway towns and Maidstone out to Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells, and across Blackheath, Greenwich, Chislehurst, Bromley, and Dulwich.
