Elderflower tree (red square marked as '1' on location map). A structural survey of a large crack in our garage identified the elderflower tree as the root cause of instability in the foundations, and its removal as critical to avoid further damage. The structural survey comments are included with the application. After the removal is completed and 6 months have passed, we can then begin remediation work to the large crack. N.B. that the structural engineer identified the overgrown scrub in the area marked by the yellow box on the location map as also being a risk to the foundations of the garage row. This is on Crown Lands, and there has been nobody managing or caretaking for this land in 18 months+ since the prior lease-holder of the land finished their tenancy, leaving it to become somewhat out of control and now also impacting our garage stability. We are unsure of who or how to seek a solution for this issue.

WHITEHOUSE, 34B FOYLE ROAD, LONDON, SE3 7RH
The very large white popular (Populus alba) has a large limb growing over the property roof. The end of the limb has a large rot pocket it and the rotten centre has fallen out nearly hitting the residents child playing under the tree. There is still a lot of growth and weight on the end of the limb and there is a very strong fear the limb may fail either damaging the property or hitting the residents child playing of family in the driveway. I strongly suggest the limb is reduced by around 2mtrs back to sound wood again to eliminate the risk of future snap outs. As this work is extremely high priority can I request it on a 5 day emergency decision.

The apple tree (malus domestica) in question is completely dead and needs to be removed as branches are now falling from it and there are small children laying around n the garden regularly. Can this be put on an emergency 5 day responce due to the trees condition please. The client has agreed to do plant like for like in a new location to make sure there is nothing in the soil that has caused the tree to decline so rapidly.

Fell Olive tree in raised front garden very close to the side wall of the garage. A structural surveyor noted that the root system of the tree is pushing against this wall, and has caused cracks to appear, and indicated that the removal of this tree is necessary to preserve the wall from further damage.
