  1. alot of companys round this way are struggling to find work 2/3 days a week, few months back there was nothing. this week ive picked up 3/4 jobs through my adverts. things will pick up they always do
  2. monterey cypress reduction told 1/3 off top and round sides off, i did the tree on the left of the pic, guy whos job it was did tree on the right, finished by lunch horrible trees to get around
  3. if you think its going to take 2 days price it for 2 days. as long as your taking into acount your truck will fill up nice and quick and allowed time for tipping off etc
  4. i never no why trees like this get felled, cant we just stick a notice up and people who want to sit under it do so at there own risk. i hate all the health and safety everyone trying to cover them selfs world we live in.
  5. looks like its just been repollarded to me, would be a shame to fell it as it looks like theres no targets, maybe a footpath. the amount of bugs that will be liveing in that.
  6. perfect set up to have both, wish i could. tracked chippers are nuts on the right job esspecially good at pulling over trees or dragging trees i find. not good on stately home lawns though
  7. tracked chippers are only good on woodland jobs, site clearance, cause most domestic jobs you need to take woodchip away so chipper can only get as near to tree as your truck.
  8. well put together video there ian
  9. my attempts 2nd picture being my shameful one which i mucked up by undercutting my hinge on one side plus not taking the small buttress off the far side.
  10. 50% chestnut reduction horrible tree to climb since its a coppice long and thin poles, with nothing on and anything that is on them snaps if you step on it. had green house and shed under it on the back side. back to the yard at 1 easy friday before you perfectionists, like me want to no why the sides arent touched at the bottom customer wanted them left hate that when it would just take a few minutes with the poles and it would look thousand times better for it.
