Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 6455424.
Two trees one a large invasive sycamore tree which are notorious for growing a deep and wide root system. Their large roots cause problems with house foundations, drains and roads, Additionally, as the tree grows larger, the roots can become more difficult to control if not removed. These trees are right next to our house and the roots are double the size of the tree now which are in the garden and going under the foundations !! The branches are also touching the roof which is allowing wild animals to climb the trees and get onto the roof and into the loft !!! Something they couldn’t do if the trees were not there. Pest control have been out twice now and written a report to state this which has cost great expense and severe damage to our property which Cheshire east is liable for. Pls could these trees be dealt with as a matter of urgency before anymore damage is caused to property, foundations and drains

Thank you for your enquiry.
We have assessed your enquiry and the tree needs to be inspected by a qualified arborist. Tree inspections are carried out in accordance with the Council’s Tree Management Strategy. Should the arborist’s report identify safety related work this will be programmed. We will provide a further update after the arborist’s inspection.
