    In report

    T1 Silver Birch - To be reduced to a manageable tree. The crown and branches have grown above (and some are intertwined with) the overhead utility cables. We would like to instruct an agent to cut the tree back by approximately 2.5 to 3 meters to reduce the crown and to reduce the spread by 2- 2.5 meters to make the tree a more manageable and structural shape. T2 Silver Birch - To the rear garden to be removed to ground level. The tree is situated less than 1metre to the main structure of the house. It has been allowed to develop in a restricted space, against a wall and within 1 meter of the rear door to our property, close to the property structure, in an enclosed rear garden. The tree's branches overhang our property roof, gutters, rear door area, ground level drain, and the tree branches overhang into our neighbour's property. The tree is now leaning / bending to the right at the crown. We would like to instruct an agent to remove this tree. We have other smaller and more suitable trees in our rear garden (2 x small fruit trees), which are more appropriate to the location and positioned away from the property structure in an area where they can develop more effectively.
