  1. yes, it is saprophytic. The tree lost a large limb last week in the high winds, and is now unbalanced, with this remaining limb overhanging listed garages. My thoughts were to reduce, but there isn't much left to reduce back to, so will probably be a pollard and see how it recovers from that. I think the client is keen to remove fully.

  2. Hi,

    I have a job in December in the SW15 area for a family friend.

    I'm not from the area and don't know it at all.

    I'm looking for somewhere to tip some wood chip or even possibly some branches and brash so I can avoid taking the chipper.

    If anyone is able to help it would be much appreciated

    Thanks

  3. Thanks,

     

    So to clarify. What is the working distance to boundary line and tracks in which you don't need pts?

    I am yet to see the job in person so may be clearer when I do.

    If I don't need to be working within the rail airspace and can all be carried out within the industrial sites, does this need any additional requirements?

    Or is it purely for the fact of safe working in the case of something cocking up?

  4. Hi,

     

    What would be the the best way to carry out works near train lines.

    The trees are on an industrial site which backs up to the line.

    What procedures should be carried out before carrying out any works?

    It's very unlikely access will be needed from track side but any advise on this sort of thing would be appreciated.

  5. Could anyone suggest the cause of death of this photinia x fraseri?

    I had a dig around the base and under the bark was white and fleshy.

    My thoughts were Armillaria mellea, but I'm aware this may not be primary cause of death.

    A ceanothus was removed a few months ago which was also dead.

     

    Any help appreciated
