I will try to explain as best as I can.
Next door to me is a disused office block that is owned by the county council, next to my back garden about 6 feet away is a pink blossom tree.
We do like the tree but it is now just a bit higher than our house, say about 10 feet with branches over the garden.
The good bit it gives a little shade to the garden in the summer months and the blossom looks nice.
The bad bit is it is blocking my Sky signal.
Now I have I think four choices.
1 ask the council to cut it back, this may take up to 6 months as it took 4 months to collect there industrial bins.
2 We have a friend that has a chain saw, he collects his own logs so knows what he is doing.
3 tell Sky but it is already on a extension pole above the house.
4 go to Virgin.
If I go for choice 2 he would only cut branches that over hang the garden and hopefully that would solve my Sky signal.
Well I don't wont to break any laws but we are fed up with no TV or bad reception.

anything overhanging your boundary you can cut off which is fine if he can do it with step ladders from in your garden, not sure where you stand if he had to climb the tree to cut them (probably well clear of the tree)
