  Cypress Tree - Remove We purchased the house one year ago and have noticed that the tree has shifted considerably over the past year -- particularly after the past week of heavy rains and wind. We are very concerned that the tree will continue to shift and fall over and damage the front fences and cars from 5 to 7 Eltisley Avenue.

This is to give the tree a better aesthetic. The select branches that will be removed will be no more than 2.5 meters long.
