    21 Emily Davison Drive Epsom Downs Surrey KT18 5QH

    T1 and T2 Conifers - 2 meter reduction. Low lying vegetation to be removed leaving healthy trees. Reason for reduction - to re balance the tree, also as it's on a slop and all weight is toward the house, limbs over neighbours garden. Add some light to small back garden. Hasn't been done since the property was built. Needs to be part of ongoing maintenance plan.

    Beech tree- Reduce up to 2m laterally all around the crown including over the road. Crown lift up to 5m. Reduce long branched rowing over the road balance as required. The works are necessary to enhance the appearance of the tree, to balance the crown and to avoid high sided vehicles damaging the tree.

    18 Walkfield Drive Epsom Downs Surrey KT18 5UF

    T1- 2 meter reduction. As the tree is within a meter of property. Over high traffic areas and is very dense from previous work on the tree. Could do with a crown clean. T2 - Pine/Fir to be crown lifted 4 lowest limbs which would be 3.5 meter crown lift from base. Remaining tree reduced 30% so selectively 1.5 meter for most but there are a few limbs that are slightly longer which would need more like 2 meter reduction to bring it into a beautiful healthy shape.
