    The more work you can get thru will lead to more work from being "out there working"IMHO.Extra decent ground staff might be a thought.

    Yes doing a bit(transmittion lines),Could be alot more in 09'(distribution) It doesnt exite me other than its easy to organise. Got alot of low voltage work for 09-2010 all my guys are ticketed.If i stay in trees i bet ill be fairly big lineclearing monster in 5 years,its the only tree work you dont have to really watch employees IMO. Just low margins if the utility wants to screw you with K.P.Is' and auditers from hell.

    A_lopa replied to Andy R's topic in Picture Forum

    Been doing loads of similar hedge jobs lately,IMHO theres never enough $$$ to be made but it is work,Have a cherry picker with a hydraulic saw which makes it more bearable. I find customers always get a decent tree service after there had it done 1-2 times poorly:mad1:
