But keep working and take the critiques opinions on board and do as you please, be it strive to never do a tree like that again or continue.

 

The scary thing, judging by his angry response, is that he thinks it looks lovely and he would be happy for the other 200 trees to look the same.

It doesn't sound like he wants to take on any bad feedback, just praise.

 

Tom, have you not seen Tony's reduction thread?

A none aesthetically appeasing tree can knock up to £30.000 off a property price. I have even in the past been sent in to remove the tree as it added more value on the property. Thats what we did on my beech highlights video. Removed for sales point as it was nearly dead.

Tom, no one has bullied you, or flamed you. They have pointed out that the standard of work is below par. I'm sure generally you would agree with them on this. To kick off angrily says to me that you know deep down that they are all right, but you have to defend yourself, and the Verminator. Finally, it is not Arbtalks fault that the tree looked bad, nor that you posted it, but of course it's easier to look to blame the whole world rather than yourself. Sleep on it and move on. Tomorrows another day,

Bad spec, bad shape, bad tree work.

 

Take it on the chin and move on Tom.

So then its look like the keyboard warriors have been at it again, Slagging working of and disrespecting members and not for the first time. Not one person has said, Tom why have you done this to a fine specimen tree. Its looks a little hash done by.

 

Reasons for this being carried out:

A picus test was carry out in the summer of this year and relieved that 45% of the base was rotten (Ganoderma applanatum) and due to the tress location next to a busy road and a junction part of the root system was covered up by a wall,pavment, and street.

 

Further inspection also identified the tree leaning towards to owners house Listed building. The tree is also based in a CA area so a phone call to the LA got the ball rolling 2 months down the line the TO came out with me discuss what possibilities we could go about it. Felling, Reductions, even pollarding the poor thing. In the end it was decided to do 60% Reduction and leave stubs to help generate quick growth back on the tree.

 

 

As you can see the tree now looks bare and to SPEC what I was given.I am happy with the work the client is HAPPY WITH THE WORK and the. TO is happy that we have given the tree a few more years as it has very High amenity value in the area witch it is located.

 

So what the problem with it now!!!!

 

 

I am now on a contract and I am doing smilier works to 200+ Trees across Nottingham. So if any one wishes to criticises any more of my work. Please Please do come along and so how it is really done and help out un-paid of course as your all bloody experts sitting behind the computer.

 

This has pissed me off no end how some members get treated on here is it disgusting and im not the only one who is not happy with how members are treated on here. It seems if you have not had any work on you need to have a dig at someone and it comes out online.

 

90% of Arbtalk is a wonderful places and I have found it very useful, Tree id, Reccy Climbs with other members, Fungi Ids. I have made many new contacts, thanks to arbtalk my business has grown, I have enjoyed doing Tree work, and the other 10% really lets the side down and drags the website down.

A bit from today, stripped the back out norfolkclimber off here. I turned up to fell it 38" diameter at the base, winch and redirect. I was glad to have the winch on it after discovering some metal we needed the winch force to break the holding wood around it.
