G16 - conifers - remove 2 x dead stems. T17 and T18 is to carry out a thorough dead wood of both trees, and conduct an aerial inspection of the trees structures to identify potential hazzards. If we discover any issues, for example broken limbs, rot pockets that are substantial (over 30% into a limb or union), excessively rubbing branches that have resulted in the lower branch having the cambium rubbed back to more than 20%, we would request that we remove these items as a matter of safety. We would also ask that we bring any over extending lateral branches back to the natural canopy line, in an attempt to prevent future limb failure.
