I have a very large lime tree bordering a public road that is dying and
needs to be removed. The tree surgeons say the power from the adjacent
pole will have to be disconnected for the work to be carried out, can
anyone please tell me what the charge for that would be (North
Staffordshire).

Contact the local supplier and advise them that there is a tree very close
to their supply line.
Have them inspect it and suggest that you are willing to assist in removing
the tree after their "pruning".


Sadly Me here that will not wash, the tree is not interfering with the
line, it is simply a health and safety matter for the men doing the work.
