Hi

 

I got a good mate Robert based 5mile from minehead i have done a lot of railway cutting and climbing work with, he's a good honest chap who hires chippers of all sizes. He currently has:

 

8''tracked timberwolf

unimog with 10'' front load shisling pto chipper

6''timberwolf

and 4''vermeer

 

allways been very reasonable on price and reliable but he usally needs a bit of notice as all his machines are busy on the railway. Definately worth giving him a call.

 

If your interested PM me and i will give you his number,

 

Cheers Roger

Hi yes Rob Mullis you know him? great guy.

 

I do a little subbing to him when he needs extra men, He works direct for UPMTilhill and Network Rail with a team of guys and covers the uk.

 

Dont think West somerset railway would allow Robs railway lot loose, there would be no more tree's in west somerset. Although think he has a local team which does the odd bit for them as you still need pts.

 

Your best bet for getting on the railway is by speaking to him, he's always on the lookout for good cutters. He might also be able to help you with your oak haulage.

I worked with him many years ago (bar work lol). I dont know much about his work as we work in different fields. Between here and porlock we have a good selection of tree surgeons which is supprising that there is enough work around for all of us. I was thinking of rob when he mentioned tracked chipper. I feel the same about trees in west somerset I cant look anymore without thinking how would be best way to dismantle it lol.

Funny you say that because iv had heard that he had been busy but got told the complete opposit, there was high stumps left every where, substandard prunning cuts and generaly poor arb practices leaving large stobs.

 

Heard this from a guy within the NT at Holnicote there just not happy with the job.

I saw there was high cuts on a few and had a wonder up there there was wire in all of it, so what you going to do? I do agree with poor pratice though with work force but he has one good climber on board and the work he has done is of good standard but maybe cant say much for other guys but cant really comment. The work looked overall os an improvement but your guy is more qualified to say than me.
