Any help on identifying this fungus would be appreciated. It is at the base of quite a big Eucalyptus. Looks a little like Ganoderma, but I'm not sure. Cheers.

Hello Phil did you manage to get anyone to remove the opm ?

 

 

Hi Jack, yes I did but if you are interested in future work let me know as trees around my area are infested with it.

Subcontract climber required who is qualified to remove OPM. 1 x Oak to climb, own PPE required. Please PM me if interested. Thanks 

I'm staying home. Think its for the best

Would that not make a mockery of the whole thing?

Maybe, but paying bills is pretty important. The advice should be crystal clear

This advice says we can go to work if we can't work from home!

Essential work... I’m assuming felling chestnut doesn’t count? Seriously though guys.... is it meant travel to work is ok if you can’t work from home....or is it essential work as in doctoring and the like...?

I read it as if you  can't work from home you can go to work 

We are a small, busy company looking for a self employed groundsman to help out 3/4 days a week. Mostly domestic work nad we are based in Leatherhead. Call 07973 221746 and leave a message if interested.

The one on the left.

Tree still landed exactly where it should, but ugly ass cut.

(It's been a long few weeks of 6day weeks.)

 

 

Only landed where it was supposed to coz we had a pulling line on it! ???

Thanks guys, thought so but always like to make sure ?

Evening all, I cut down an Ash about 4 years ago leaving the stem at about 4ft. The customer now has these mushrooms coming up all over the place. Is it Honey Fungus?

Thanks

So are there any tree surgery one man bands on here (using subbies as necessary), doing mainly small domestic trees and hedges, with a few small council/public jobs mixed in, which have gone VAT registered?

How did you find it affected your workload?

Did you lose more quotes than before?

Did you have to get an accountant if you didn't have one before?

Yes, I have. You'll always lose out on some quotes because of VAT but generally if you have a good customer base and a good reputation then you should still be busy. I'm lucky to live in an area where there are a lot of trees and a lot of money so usually there is more than enough work. Even if you aren't VAT registered, there will always be someone who will quote cheaper so don't worry about it.

 

Small, busy company looking for a self employed groundsman or second climber for ongoing work. Pay dependent upon experience. 

Call Phil on 07973 221746 

Experienced groundsman urgently required for next week, probably longer. Please call 07973 221746 to dicuss rates. Based from Leatherhead in Surrey. 

We are a small company working out of Leatherhead who currently have a vacancy for a groundsman with the possibility of going on to becoming a trainee climber. No experience necessary as on the job training will be given but the ability to get to our yard for 7am and a good work ethic is a must. 

Contact Philip on 07973 221746

Where is the wood Phil? I would love to take some if it's not too far from me!

Cheers

Hi Will, it's in Woking atm, but will end up in Leatherhead after today

Nice markings on the inside, seems a shame to send it for firewood. Will be in Woking until tomorrow, then going back to Leatherhead

Thanks David 👍

Found this growing at the base of a Lime tree. Looks a bit like Ganoderma, but something is niggling that it just doesn't quite look right.

Mine was built by KMR about 4 years ago, very well built and no problems with it.

Someone more cynical than me might suggest that your boss wants to bring it in house to make sure the right boxes are ticked and jobs aren't held up because of wildlife!

Message for Steve, chucking this lot on the fire pile, is that ok? 😉

Cheers Kev and Rhys 👍
