This Bamboo Removal project in Doylestown, PA (Bucks County) started the way many of our Pennsylvania jobs do — a homeowner originally tried to solve a running bamboo problem with a general landscaping company, but the bamboo was not properly contained. Without the correct rhizome barrier depth, overlap, and installation method, the bamboo continued spreading underground and eventually escaped into surrounding areas of the yard.
When we arrived on site, the priority was to identify exactly where the bamboo had migrated and remove the escaped bamboo growth completely. Running bamboo spreads through an underground root system called rhizomes, and once those rhizomes extend beyond the intended area, they can send up new shoots in places the homeowner would never expect — often along fence lines, near sheds, and into areas that are difficult to access with equipment.
For this Bamboo Removal in Doylestown PA, we removed the out-of-control bamboo growth and then installed professional-grade rhizome barrier containment around the remaining bamboo to prevent future spreading. One of the more difficult parts of this project involved a tight section behind a shed, where bamboo containment work needs to be done carefully and precisely to avoid leaving open gaps that the bamboo can exploit later.
Once the removal and containment work was complete, we finished the project by grading and leveling the disturbed soil, then applying grass seed and straw to stabilize the area and support healthy regrowth. This final step is important not just for appearance, but also to reduce erosion and help the property bounce back quickly after bamboo excavation work.
