Ripped off by tree surgeons

Worth the gamble tho: ladder placement would be interesting on that bank and a nice ash barber chair t catapult you off the ladder!

Am i the only one who thinks the title is misleading? No-ones been ripped off, first quote was a bit high thats all, no trees been cut, no moneys changed hands

 

I too normally put a high price on customers i don't like, i can see why the price left was high!

He said there was a stream just under the tree, if it barber-chaired you could jump into the stream for a softer landing. couldn't ask for better positioning of a water course..

There is a guy in Worthing who quotes over £1,000 per day without equipment.

He then subs it out at £300 per day to a guy with van/chipper and groundie. Over £700 per day for quoting!

 

He is well known as an absolute bandit BUT he doesn't force anyone to accept his quotes and he makes anyone quoting less seem like a bargain. The thing is, he DOES get takers and he don't need too many. I would rather there were more like him than these tax dodging, cost cutting vermin who go round quoting stupidly cheap just to keep busy. Enough.... this has been done on many threads before -I'm off. 

......and stealing our bloody woodchippers an chainsaws to do the work underpriced * blood boils * K
