Proposal

Removal of a Lawson's Cypress Tree is requrested by felling and stump treatment. The tree is approximately 2 m from the rear of the cottage and is right up against the boundary fence with neighbouring property. The tree was well established but relatively small when I bought the cottage in 2012. Previous owner had built the deck around it. Although the tree has been trimmed it is now about 3m tall and 1m diameter. It is multi stemmed and some of hte trunks exceed 75mm in diameter.
