Works to Trees

Description

1x Pine tree which is closest to the house to the right of the entrance gate we would like to be consider to have this tree removed to the stump as we are finding it hard to get insurance for our house as the tree is too close to the house and bending towards the property with minimal growth which looks to be dead/dying. Reduce height of 3x Pine trees by at least 3 feet off the top of the trunk remove any dead branches to reduce weight. Data via plota.co.uk
