Find someone who can loan you a few Pandas otherwise you will have to be constantly cutting, digging and poisoning for a very long time.

You might end up removing the paving and decking but my first line of attack would be to cut off any long stems (down to a manageable height) just below a leaf node. Mix some glyphosate (Roundup) and with pipette drip some of the mixture into the hollow stem. If necessary hollow out the stems with a thick knitting needle or similar.

That's what my son did to get rid of his Japanese knotweed.

I would advise you to edit your question to remove your email address ... lots of spam may come your way otherwise!
I had to remove a huge Bamboo years ago, lots of hard work with firstly cutting it down, then soaking the ground before digging the whole thing out, took us days!
I am sure other members will have further advice for you.
