Question
Rebeccap87
Hello, I’m hoping I can get some advice, I’m also contacting an arborist to assist.
our neighbour has 2 100 year old oaks, around 3/4metres from her property. We are semi detached. The soil type is loamy/clayey and is not free draining. I’ve checked this on a map site that indicates the soil type, our lawn is always boggy in winter.
the neighbour wants to remove both trees next month in one go. This worries me about heave. Is this a possibility and will our property suffer? I will add- the neighbouring property is already suffering cracks in the brickwork above the door lintel. We don’t seem to have anything in the way of cracks at the moment. Pic attached of trees lot be removed.
