Paul- I love your honesty and enthusiasm for trees- I too have been in the hole with mattock and hand saw- even on conifers that 'sensible?' customers have had felled before worrying about getting out the roots- before grinders were so commonplace.

We occasionally work up London way- 3 days next week as it happens but more south east- Sevenoaks/Welling/ Dartford

If you can get to these areas then let me know and we'll exchange details. I'm thinking the journey would make it uneconomic but the offer is there.

Mick is a sound fella- I reckon you've a good contact there.

Top job Silky Fox, nothing like a bit of hard work to keep your spirits up.

 

Hope you get your self sorted out with plenty of work, you deserve it.

Stumps suck, I have done quite a few the hard way, this one was so badly placed and concrete infested we broke it up into several bits with jacks, axes and wedges then got a little help to get the 400kg bits out......
