"When good trees go bad!"

This roof for the most part its in fair condition,except for the tree next door,it overhangs quite a bit over this roof.
it was trimmed the previous day but the damage had already been done.

The homeowner noticed that during the windy days he could hear a branch scraping against the roof and gutter edge.

another large branch was also cut from right above this chimney

Branches high above cover most of  the roof

Large hole done by branch touching this area on windy days
Yearly trimming should be done on this tree to prevent any more damage to the roof shown
