  1. You will be astounded how much branch volume comes out of the trees and how little you can get into your car!
  2. The law I believe says training so for my tracked loader we had a local cscs/npors trainer out for the day having previously sent him the manual and showed him how it worked with forks ,bucket skip etc they then gave me certificate of training. There is no approved course for chariot style loaders tracked or wheeled but I’m sure someone needing money will come up with one technically you can do it yourself
  3. I first started work in a large earth moving company, when we won a job the first thing the contracts director did was to look hard at the price to see where we had gone wrong it was very easy to underprice the big jobs he liked the small works big kit + small job = good profit
  4. Ignore his quote, get couple of others staged reductions are very old news, you will need to allow for the drive to be dug out to remove the large roots
  5. The costs of designing and constructing your extension to allow the tree to stay are far more than the cost to replant a semi mature tree much further away from the house, the tree is already too close and will suffer from the continuous pruning required to keep it from damaging the house if it’s the colour of leaf you like maybe look at a purple plum planted further away
  6. Had some success with a pressure washer then overspray with colour to blend in
  7. And Russian vine
  8. I will offer you with bindweed
  9. You still here!!!!!!
  10. By being cheaper!!
  11. Yes I’ve done it no petrol in tank bar and chain off, was recommended by ticket collector to carry in hold-all far less questions at each station
  12. Magnets are quite strong yet to bounce one off at 60 to 70 pounds cheaper than a ticket
  13. Got a set of these in each truck can’t recommend highly enough full charge lasts all day no worry about wires, really good for towing broken down vehicles bought mine couple years back £100.00 much better value now just remember to charge and put back in box when finished
  14. Try western red cedar should be able to buy at six foot tall a lot cheaper than mugo or juniper both these slow growing
  15. That’s confirmation of my thoughts, it’s at the bottom of clients garden the developer of the plot at the rear has been wanting it down since he bought the plot

  20. The local council decided to cut mine knowing it wasn’t under there ownership
  21. My reading is the legislation refers to trees and shrubs so a 25ft high 40 foot long grass hedge is not covered and so cannot be instructed for reduction ?
  22. I thought you knew of the local travelling fraternity
  23. Can bamboo be a high hedge according to legislation?

Sustainable Namibian firewood at 2% mmmmm!!! hetas woodsure 20% moisture read the threads on here hornbeam not common firewood come to Essex i agree presentation looks like local authority waste pamphlets just my personal observations from pages posted don’t get kiln dried either
