Default Is my Silver Birch Safe?


snip They have written back
advising they will reduce the crown in June next year and then inspect
it every 3 years. Is this satisfactory or should I still be concerned?
Any advise would be most welcome!

Send a copy to your insurance company for information, so they can't

accuse
you of withholding material information. It shouldn't affect your
premium - they will see that you are a responsible customer.

If it *is* safe, then of course you will be reassured, and can enjoy a
fine-looking tree maintained by someone else..

Be aware that many insurance companies will not insure you if trees are
within, in some cases, up to 14 meters from your property. Though if you
are already insured and they have not appraised you of that fact then you
should be covered, until your insurance is due for renewal, and then they
may well decline. This happened to me.
