We have a crab apple tree approximately 8 feet from a conservatory. According to Building Surveyor, Mr John Nettleton MRICS (07811 325800) it is contributing to some movement in the conservatory floor and sinking of the patio. We would like to either remove this tree or reduce its height. New height would be 8ft. We will use a specialist company AJH Tree Services. Please see sketch for position of tree marked Tree and the conservatory
