As said above it's had to comment without before pics but in interested in why such a seemingly pointless reduction was carried out to keep the council happy ?

 

 

Well the customer wanted it reduced asked permission was allowed up to 2.5mtrs which would taken it in to epigrowth only. I did get about that of one side near the sycamore as it was heavily in unbalanced. Also lifted it away from the roof. As you see I've since taken down the sycamore for the neighbour

 

 

Also I'll get beforepics in the future

Sometimes it can be even better to see why the customer feels the need for a reduction . Often if the reduction is indeed pretty much pointless I will explain why and save them money , it often leads to more work in the future and an proves to the client that you are more than just a contractor after work . I'm not saying that you are in anyway just after work .

i get many customers who seem to have an irrational fear of tall trees, and also many who beleive a crown reduction will mean more light, which in some cases is true, but not just 1 mtr. i will discuss the pros and cons and usually recommend a crown lift. as combined tree services says, you get more respect/ work/ recommendations for sound knowledge, even if, as i sometimes do, recommend no action be taken.
