The trees are a sweet Chestnut (T1) and a beech tree (T2) on the sketch plan. Tree T1 is touching the roof of the house and if allowed to grow further could damage the roof tiles. T2 is much taller and overhangs the house. I would like to lop the offending branches off T1 and trim the overhanging branches of T2. The work proposed would reduce the volume of leaves falling into the gutters, make it more difficult for squirrels to get on the roof and then into the loft space, and would cut back the tree growth that has occurred since the last successful tree lopping application in December 20013.

T1 - OAK - CROWN LIFT ABOVE HOUSE IN ORDER TO ESTABLISH 2M CLEARANCE FROM ROOF. LATERAL REDUCTION OF 2M IN ORDER TO CREATE CLEARANCE FROM BUILDING. SPREAD BEFORE = 12M SPREAD AFTER = 10M T2 - CROWN REDUCTION OF UP TO 2M OVERALL (SIDES & HEIGHT) BEFORE HEIGHT = 16M AFTER HEIGHT = 14M. BEFORE SPREAD = 14M. AFTER SPREAD = 12M. T3 - CROWN REDUCTION OF UP TO 2M OVERALL - LIFT OVER ROADSIDE UPTO 4M (SIDES & HEIGHT) BEFORE HEIGHT = 16M AFTER HEIGHT = 14M. BEFORE SPREAD = 14M. AFTER SPREAD = 12M.

Sweet Chestnut tree that is dead and in danger of collapsing on to the roof of our house, or possibly on to the road alongside. Paul Searle (arborist) has visited, confirmed that is dead, and that it needs to be felled.

The reason for this application is to make the trees safe for the public and house owners. I Deyan Grozev - the owner of Grozev Tree Care want to let you know the exempt work will be carried out on T1, T2, T3. And T1: Acacia - Remove major deadwood. T2: Oak - Remove major deadwood. T3: Oak - Remove major deadwood. T4: Oak - Prune back the branch to clear the telephone cable by 1-1.5m, remove major deadwood, and lift the crown over the road to 5.5m. T5: Oak - Prune back the low canopy over neighbor driveway by 2-2.5m, and remove major deadwood, because of excessive shading. T6: Oak - Prune back the low canopy to clear the neighbor roof by 2m, and remove major deadwood.
