Great weather today, finally in T shirts again. Nice job on this medium oak partially over a public alleyway - not a soul walked through all day but we took turns having someone in there to warn the climber when someone coming through

What was the need to do that for 🤷🏿

Customer wants it “kept under control” and they want to turn a coin!

Not very professional tree work.

If the sub station is as close as it looks then it would be done for free by the distribution company and it's not really promoting good practice in a tree of that species and age now is it....

 

No need for a job like that . Poor tree.

You really think that the distribution co would have done a neat job ! Get to the real world

Yes they would but more importantly the surveyor would have left a tree that doesn't need cutting.

Is it really worth worrying about

We as arborists should "worry" about all trees  and certainly not rip off customers cutting a mature oak for the sake of a couple of hundred quid. It's wrong

Hardly ripping them off - they wanted it doing again as it overhangs 3 gardens, a public alley and doesn’t overhang the substation. Very happy with the job, booked us in for another two days work and neighbours were good too. Standard job every 3-6 years depending on location

Good luck 😂

Cedar, bigger than it looks.

Wind and rain didn’t help.

Back tomorrow to move the wood. Would love to claim the hinge, but it’s Dave’s (@5thelements) work.
