Bio-Shield provides professional cannabis grow clean-up services across the Scottish Borders and surrounding areas. This service is designed for properties that have been used for cannabis cultivation and now require specialist cleaning, decontamination, and remediation before they can be safely reoccupied, refurbished, or returned to use.
We work with landlords, letting agents, housing providers, local authorities, estates, and commercial clients to restore affected properties safely and in line with health, safety, and environmental requirements.
Cannabis cultivation can cause extensive contamination and damage within a property. Common issues include excessive moisture, mould growth, chemical residues, altered electrics, and contamination of surfaces, fixtures, and building materials.
Grow environments may also involve fertilisers, pesticides, and waste materials that present health risks if not handled correctly. Standard cleaning methods are not suitable in these situations.
Specialist assessment, controlled removal of contaminated materials, and professional decontamination are required to ensure the property is made safe.
Professional cannabis grow clean-up is commonly required following:
Police seizure or closure of a grow operation
Discovery of historic or abandoned cultivation
Preparation of a property for re-letting or sale
Health and safety concerns relating to mould, chemicals, or contamination
Each property is assessed individually to determine the level of contamination and the most appropriate remediation approach.
The Scottish Borders include rural homes, estates, agricultural buildings, market towns, and isolated properties where cannabis cultivation may go unnoticed for extended periods. These settings often present additional challenges such as access, scale, and hidden contamination.
Our technicians regularly operate throughout the region, including areas such as Galashiels, Hawick, Selkirk, Jedburgh, and Peebles, alongside surrounding rural locations.
This regional familiarity allows works to be planned and completed safely and efficiently regardless of property type or location.
Clients contact us with details of the property and the issue identified. Where possible, we request images or videos of the affected areas to allow an initial assessment.
Based on the information provided, we issue a clear written quotation outlining the scope of works, expected timescales, and any waste removal or decontamination requirements. For complex or heavily affected properties, an on-site survey may be required before works commence.
Works may include the removal of contaminated materials, treatment of mould-affected areas, specialist surface cleaning, and professional decontamination using approved products.
All cannabis grow clean-up work is carried out by trained technicians using appropriate PPE and specialist equipment.
Contaminated materials and waste are removed, transported, and disposed of responsibly using licensed waste carriers and approved disposal routes, in line with environmental and health regulations.
Pricing varies depending on the size of the property, the extent of contamination, access requirements, and the level of remediation required.
Guide prices for cannabis grow clean-up typically start from £900 (plus VAT). For larger or more heavily contaminated properties, extensive remediation work typically starts from £2,000 (plus VAT). Final pricing is confirmed following assessment.
Cannabis grow properties may require additional measures following clean-up, including further decontamination, pest control, or preventative treatments to address residual risks.
Where appropriate, follow-on services can be arranged through our Shield Group partners to support long-term protection and compliance.
