This tree continually blocks our gutters, which has resulted in damp within the living area of the house. It is also seeding our roof which is resulting in lots of tree growth on the roof.Recently, a large limb fell damaging adjacent trees. 3; Lawson Cypress (South West corner of the house) - Remove.Reason: Overhanging the building at our southwest corner, limits light and is competing with and obscuring a very attractive purple beech tree.
