12 Church Close Kelsale Cum Carlton Suffolk
Description:
We have a large sycamore tree approximately 3 metres behind our garage. The garage has suffered a large crack on the right wall (south facing) as a result of subsidence as identified by Philip Sciberras BSc (Hons) MRICS BDMA Ins Tech for Trinity Claims. Mr Sciberras identified the source of the subsidence as the sycamore tree and that it needed to be removed to avoid further damage to the garage. The tree is located close to the property line of the property and there is insufficient space to plant a new tree.
