Without seeing a pic , how about formative pruning/thinning the new growth carefully, to eventually achieve an even crown in many yrs to come. oh - yes to mulching too

If I could add to this Gary - root kill the stump first and make the client aware of the damage that can happen from new shoots sprouting from the roots outside the influence of the stump killer

This tree is fully mature. I have often found them with moderate to advanced decay at the base of he trunk at this age. (especially when they have large basal flares). Why don't you test bore the trunk at the base.

Heave / subsidence from oak on clay soil
Paul Cleaver replied to joepatr's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Hi there,. You will not get a comprehensive clear answer to your question on this forum as a full investigation is needed. You need pay for a report which will need visits the site taking measurements, soil samples, liaising with a structural engineer etc. If you do this, find a company who has done such surveys before, and ask to see a copy of their professional indemnity insurance. You should find someone on Arbtalk willing to do this. It should be done properly so it will be expensive. -

Hi Gary, I should have elaborated and kept to the topic of stability. The reason I would not call them a safe is they lose their tops when windy. As for stability - Ive noticed failure at the roots more often when the ground is saturated
-
unless sheltered from the wind, I would never call a 25m row of Leylandii safe trees
