Reported via mobile in the Tree roots lifting pavement category anonymously at 12:37, Wed 25 June 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7761899.

I am writing to formally raise a complaint regarding the persistent issue of excessive leaf debris caused by overgrown trees near my property at [Your Address].

Despite previous requests for the trees to be trimmed or cut back, no action has been taken. As a result, I am experiencing the following ongoing problems: • Large volumes of leaves entering the property through open windows, making it difficult to ventilate the home. • Heavy leaf fall accumulating in both the front and back garden. • Damage caused to my vehicle from falling debris while parked on the driveway.
