how come it came down?

 

There were 2 side by side. We were called out in the snow because the 1st tree was listing right over the house with the weight of the snow. We stripped it down to a pole as an emergency. The tree we speedlined had dropped some huge pieces and smashed up the conservatory. The client wanted this one down on the same day but I didn't think that it was imminently dangerous as it had already shed a lot of the weight. What foliage was left would not have sustained the tree for long so we applied to fell it and took the other stem out at the same time.

 

Yeah High Scale we did have to carry it all out. Had to slice the big rings into 3 just to get them throuth the passage. The wheel barrow only just made it through the access passage. I still havent seen any photos from this job but I'm hoping there are some good ones

Thanks for the feedback. The job was a good one, managed to blast it out 5 man days under what I had quoted so its nice to earn some good money on the job.

 

The reason for the speedline was that the access was awfull. Everything has to go down steps and through a very narrow passage. It only took 3 of us 2 days to get both trees down the way we did it. All done now and the gardens are spotless execpt 4 or 5 small dings that we filled and re-seeded

 

Here is a picture from my phone to give a bit of scale. I did have a mate come in to get some better photos. I'll put a couple up when he sorts them out.

 

Gibbon, great job mate, meant to comment when you first posted, big tree!

 

The thing is, the kids want to know when you will put the water back in their pool that you popped?
