Trees needing a reduction

Hi, there are three large trees outside our home, we want them to stay but they’re getting too close to our home and our neighbours. They’re also incredibly tall which may void our buildings insurance - as well as blocking the light and landing debris into our front garden and pavement. We don’t want to lose them as they’re an essential barrier from the road, and they provide some much needed greenery to the community but please can they be reduced in size a little? Nothing major - perhaps 20/30%?

We will make a site visit and review any potential crown lifts or reductions via our tree specialists and action as appropriate. Please note all trees are reviewed as part of an annual tree survey. Excessive over pruning can have severe implications to trees and can cause premature death. We will however be guided by our tree specialists and take actions as suggested. Your report has been investigated and we have reported this to our contractors for inspection. Any necessary action will be taken in the next 28 days if required. Thank you for taking the time to report this to us. Should you need anything else or have any questions please contact customer services on 0343 222 1234
To note all Action Scheduled reports are auto closed after 28 days, the fault however will be fixed within the timescale stated above which may be sooner or in a few cases take a little longer.
