    Tree Safety Inspection

    Tree safety inspections/reports. I operate in the York - Leeds area. PTI qualified. I also utilise the VALID app/method of tree risk assessment.
  3. I had one of these. Useful when going was tough. It fell into some bushes and lost - not helped by it's grey colour. Looks like Skylotec in dispute over patent so not available. There device is called a Ringo I think. Worth looking at. Hand ascender also useful. I have a dearer ISC one and a more lightweight Heightec one. I prefer the latter. Foot ascenders also help but can be a bit fiddly at times. I've tried srt but still not fully confident with it. I also tried hitch climber but I find zigzag better. It's the non swivel one but I have 2 carabiners below it - with a dmm swivel between them. The foot ascenders and hand ascender help. Good old Blake's hitch for hip thrusting otherwise. Gloves sometimes but usually put in pocket.

  5. Old thread. This morning had some bloke ring up reckoning to be from local council. Asked if I wanted my details for survey work to go in planning publication. He sent me the info. Spotted scam straight away - obviously since about £600 quid for advert. He was very convincing on phone, council area phone code I think. Making out he worked for council. Anyway not much chance of getting £6 off Yorkshireman, nevermind £600.
  6. The DeWalt one is very good. More for rough cutting as it's not the nearest finish.
  7. I've only done tree safety reports, not planning. So I don't know the exact criteria re planning. It can be very time consuming inputting all the data - with a group of similar trees in a group there it reduces the amount of unnecessary info and repetitive input when a group description is just as informative. I think with the planning it would depend on the plot size. I think there is specific criteria where each tree must be plotted if it's within a certain distance of the proposed building. Maybe a group of trees can be added where it is pointless adding individual root zones,etc. . Bit vague from me since I don't really know. If you Google the BS you might manage to bring a free copy up. It's expensive to buy otherwise. It should provide the info on these specific questions...
  8. Maybe Elon Musk sees Starmer as a psychopathic evil person like Stalin and Hitler. Therefore he will help Reform remove him from power. I personally hope he does help get rid of him. I think he's a tinpot Communist. Admittedly some people think the sun shines out of his arse. He's locked people up for trivial matters whilst releasing serious offenders early(allegedly). His cabinet are very poor quality to put it mildly. The chancellor is as thick as pig sh!t. Their attack on farming is a perfect example of both their politics of envy and desire for a Communist/Trotskyist state. The list goes on. They are sh!t beyond belief.
  9. You two should quit these arguments. Labour are sh!te - end of.
  10. I think it's a species of Maple. Someone may have educated guess from the bark.
  11. Been looking on their website...does the price shown include vat and delivery - no indication on the price shown. Also do the wheels have bearings? Thanks
  12. These 36v combi ones are good for long reach but a bit unwieldy. The 18v medium reach is a good all rounder but won't cut as thick. The small 18v posted earlier is good for neat trimming of leylandii but not for thick stuff. I still wear ear defenders as they won't do your hearing any good long term although the 36v is the quietest.
