Amberwood Nottingham Road Heronsgate Rickmansworth Hertfordshire WD3 5DL
Crown reduction of Oak tree (T1) on boundary adjacent to driveway to the below specification Reduce lateral overhang on clients side, back to suitable growth points (up to 2.5metres lateral reduction), so as to maintain the aesthetics of the tree, whilst reducing encroachment over drive as much as possible. The reduction will be completed to the clients side of the canopy where it is over hanging your property, and the over extended limbs will be brought back in line with the rest of the canopy. This reduction will be blended into the remaining canopy as required to leave a natural look to the tree (however the overall height and remaining canopy will not be reduced - due to the fact they are shaded by surrounding trees, so not grown to the same extent) To include the removal of all deadwood over 50mm diameter from the canopy overhanging or close to your boundary

We wish to remove a mature fir tree at the southwest corner of the garden, immediately adjacent to the drive. The fir tree is crowding out two old apple trees behind it, blocking their light and forcing them to grow outwards and become unbalanced. We want to retain the apple trees and encourage them to grow. The fir tree is not protected by a Tree Preservation Order. We have been advised by a tree surgeon that the apple trees will need pruning back once the fir tree has been removed in order to encourage growth above the tree trunks.
