Reductions

[Marc Lewis]

Absolute shocker from today but out of my control really. Where the foliage it at top is the height the customer wanted to tree to screen the house behind still, but obviously as every branch was drooping down this was the only way to really achieve that....I certainly wasn't happy with it, nor was the customer although she understood there was no way round it. I have a feeling we will be back to fell it soon!

Respect for posting that reduction Steve, not alot you can do there.

I'm in the fortunate position of being able to refuse jobs like that now.

I've done similar in the past, and the regrowth doesn't look great either.

Fair play though Steve, great variety on this thread.

It'll curl up and cover the top in a year or two.

 

If you explained the outcome before, walk out the garden without a backward glance, with a cheque of course!

A before and after picture of a recent Beech reduction. The tree had been reduced very badly in the past and had several medium sized holes in it. We reduced it quite hard but tried to keep a natural shape to it.

Today's sycamore in school playground, upto 2m on top and sides, upto 4m over neighbours gardens and crown lift to 5m, not my best work but hey.

 

Will probably be there tomorrow to do the sycamore to the left too

Reduced a beech tree that had been previously topped today. Wanted more light in the garden but still wanted to retain the tree

Been done before a few years ago by photos, you've done it again and it'll be shading the garden exactly the same in a few more years. Looks like you've got some regular work there.
