# Trees - General, 21 Wanaka Place, Mairehau, Christchurch 8052, New Zealand

Mairehau, Christchurch · filed 5 March 2024 · report 4376873
https://www.chch.live/report/4376873

> Hi, We have an issue with tree roots from a “Fortune Park” tree, CCC ref:148551. We believe it may be affecting our house foundations and concrete patio as the tree has significantly increased in size in the nearly five years we have owned our house. We would like to trim the roots back to our property border, but this may undermine the safety of the tree. Could we please have a CCC representative out to discuss the problem and assess the tree and root structure. Thanks, Bryce
