Does this sycamore require a cherry picker for a crown reduction?

I did a savage 4m reduction on a 10m Silver birch earlier in the week, it was too harsh but they were adamant that was what they wanted,

I understand what you are saying, but I would not want my sign written vehicle alongside that kind of job - could lead to people thinking we are cowboys I reckon.

Not my firm I’m afraid so I don’t really get a say. I’m told where to go and what to do in the morning. It was all cut to growth and had a decent shape was just too harsh IMO. Apparently it’s what had been agreed with the boss when he quoted it.

Did one in Solihull, nice Acer took it back to every good growth point- looked absutely natural. Boss say ' we dont want Kew garden stuff here on this contract' ,  I said "  ok i will aim for 'The Somme'  look,  yea?"   he did not  answer but i left shortly after. K

It won’t get out of hand if it’s trimmed every few years, what’s so hard about that? It’s literally our job.

 

But no, that’s not in the program, the arbnazis want to fell anything that doesn’t conform and to fill our gardens with boring bloody rowans, cos their lecturer at arb college told em to.

Truth.

Gawky little sycamore, very resilient, give the client what they want, preferably back to old points, and a gentle clean up, end of.

You’ll wanna get the second job cracked out as depending on who you are working for there may well be a third job! “Just a lovely little job on the way back to the yard” [emoji23]
