Cheers. I tied into the hook and cleared a fair bit of stuff into the garden. Ties into some bits on the roof but the more we removed the more unstable it felt. Hence using the crane to break snap cuts and tear the leaders away from the roof. I felt I had to make the step cuts pretty thick as I didn't want the piece breaking off or the stem falling away from under me. Also it gave me time to get out of Dodge.

 

The structural engineer working on behalf of the houses insurance company was reall satisfied with how the job was conducted. The only additional damage would have been a few roof tiles and some guttering I pulled off to stop it falling on someone below.

HI RICH nice job there mate well done mate jon :thumbup:

cheers mate. The houses were boarded up by the EA (I think) as both water tanks and heating systems in the lofts were ruptured. At one point, I was looking through the roof and ceiling into someones room. A lot of the windows were smashed already, I presume they boarded the ground floor to stop tea leafs and to prevent more damage inside if any more were smashed.
