Fencing time?

[Lee Winger]

We were on a rear boundary of a garden and an unadopted road,I had already removed nine 40-50 year old leylandii's and a mate ground the stumps out before we started fencing - the cable was three feet down right under the stumps,just on the last knockings for the hole,really put the willies up me,now looking for a CAT and the relevent training - I thought it was just going up trees that caused the problems!!!

 

I have a cat and training I never rely on it alone, its always best to check service plans if you can get hold of them, I once had a council contract grinding out stumps on the highway, it was the most stressful aspect of my entire Arboricultural career....

Never trust service plans that are supplied by utility companies they are not always correct, i used to work for the local water authority and they had a disclaimer on all plans sent out to contractors saying these plans may not be accurate and test holes should be hand dug to check for accuracy.....It will cost you dearly if you hit a service when you have asked for plans.

Hi Lee

 

What was the turn around time for getting to see the plans - i appreciate that this will vary from different utilities in different areas,going to have a try tomorrow for a job next week!
