O yes they were ichy it took hours and hours up the ladder with the house It took a whole day to sort they eyes out after o for the job of ivy .

I found the best tools were a mallet and small crowbar one section was very very hard it just was so matted and stuck it took lots of patients and perservance but in the end I got there the back of the house will similar . I saw lots of spiders and crawleys it took 3 days with the front and back of the house and the garage. now I am on to the trees o happy days

 

The garage was interesting too. the roof went mabe 4 meters back and the roof was made of plastic and dropped down into a very large garage so I could not put any weight on it so I had to do the lot from rope and harness up from the tree above it was just great fun .

Hope it paid alright, well done!

 

O your post has made me laugh :thumbup: love it . Yes I have lots of paitents hours of it to get a job done well what ever it it. I wont give in till I am 100 percent happy with the outcome and the customer to. I used a long reach hedge trimmer for the reduction part of ti and some of it I had to do with hand tools as there was cables all mixed in up the walls as well. that did take some carefull cutting as they were grey and black and could of been mistaken for some of the roots.

Sorry Fi, couldn't resist!

 

I actually enjoy de-ivying decent size trees, especially if you can bag a decent anchor first. You must be tempted to spike them!
