the 'todays job' thread

First stage of reducing this walnuts crown to bring back in the left hand side mostly and some over the field behind. The clematis is monstrous and to be retained.

 

Took about 10ft off in places and no before shot sadly as I was in a rush to get home.

Small Plum to finish the day. I had reduced about 4 years ago so just had to take out the regrowth.

Hahahahaha, in 5 years time you'll be thinking 'Jesus I wish I'd listened to that Geordie monkey. I weigh 17 stone now, this spiking is bollocks!'.

Tree climbing is bollocks

Before & After's of a massive Oak myself and Ben Worden spent the last 2 days reducing. Probably the hardest (most difficult) reduction either of us have done to date.

Cracking job lads. Truly impressive.

 

What happened to the nest

[worden84]

Thanks Joe. The customer asked us to remove both nests, one was an old birds nest the other was a drey. We worked round the drey and removed the nest.

Skills JDavis.

 

Ian, when they said 'the Clematis is to be retained' I would have looked at my diary and said I'd just realised I was fully booked for the next 55 years.
