  1. Certainly was. You can see by the third to last pic. Just had to drop crotch alot of it.
  2. Sorry guys havnt been on here for aaaaaaages! Heres a few of what ive done recently . . . .
  3. Ive had a Kwikchip 120 6" for a few years now. Today the engine blew. Cracked head or block Im in two minds as to buy a new chipper and get what i can for my old one or to buy a new engine? What should i do and how much would i get for my chipper with a buggered engine?
  4. The two guys ive used as a third man/ climbers are going to pastures new. Im therefore looking for an experienced climber to use when i need a third man? My company is Town And Country Tree Services, and we're based nr Lewes, East Sussex. If anyone on here is available or knows of any self employed climbers please reply on here or email me at [email protected] Cheers Sam.

  6. Yep! I did the same. Do the usual comparison bollocks etc and was recommended to try Aviva! Haven't looked back! Well happy! Trust ins couldn't touch them!
  7. Hi all. I will be starting a partial site clearance at a site in Hastings, East sussex. I will have a good few loads of woodchip that ideally could be tipped locally and also lots of wood. ie. Ash, Sycy, Holly, Lime and a bit of conny. This can picked up from site. Any leads would be great. Many thanks. Sam 07812910957
  8. Multi van policy with Aviva! saved me a fortune. They DO insure tippers!
  9. Also, there will be wood mixed hardwood/ conifer logs that if anyone wants to pick up from site, again would save me taking it back.
  10. Hi All. Im starting a clearance job on a development site in Cranleigh, Surrey next Wednesday 6th. Its not a local job for us so would be great if anyone knows of anywhere that will accept/want loads of clean woodchip (conifer and hardwood mixed) within the area? . It would save me taking it back to East Sussex every day! Many thanks, Sam
  11. With trees of this age and size. It is good practice (if the client is prepared to pay for it!) to reduce the tree in stages. Maybe four times to end up with a more natural look with as little impact on the tree as possible. By reducing / thinning the branches will let more light through to the next layer of the crown therefore releasing the dormant buds and in turn fresh new internal growth. Three years down the line this growth has grown to a point where a crown reduction is possible again. And so on.
  12. If you look closely at the tree you will notice it has been reduced. Maybe more of a thin on the top but the sides have been bought in. With Holm Oaks especially I tend to drop crotch/ reduce by thinning, due to the nature of Holm Oaks having little suitable growth to cut to inside the crown. To be honest I tend reduce many of my trees in this manner nowadays.
  13. Todays Job- Monster Holm Oak 20% reduction. A long day but really happy with the finished result. Reason for reduction was a recent low branch shed plus a few snmall Gano brackets in he buttresses.
  14. Hi chaps. Just wondering where I might hire traffic lights from in the East Sussex area? And would you normally hire or use their team to set them out for you? Cheers, Sam
