My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Juniper - falling over

19 years ago

I have a tall (approx. 10-12 ft) juniper next to my house -it has fallen over before and has now fallen over again into the neighbour's yard.

I suspect that its position right next to the house has prevented the growth of roots to support its height.

Besides tying it down, does anyone have any suggestions about how to prevent it from falling over, or do I have to cut it down?

Thank you in advance for any help/advice anyone can provide.
