Just moved into a new house and there are 20 foot leylandii at the
bottom of the garden. Is there any way of cutting them back to a more
reasonable size ?

There is no height low enough for a Leylandii. They are the foulest modern
weed by a long chalk.

We do need the cover as we will be looked directly
onto if we chop them down. Also any idea what we should pay to a tree
surgeon if we should get them cut back?

One hell of a lot more than you think
