    From when the application is logged,

    6 weeks round here I think. And yes that's the way I understand it too.
  3. Hodge
    I guess so
  4. Hodge
    Thinking about it if they don't put a TPO on the tree then they are consenting to you doing the work...
  5. Hodge
    What happens if they have taken the tree down without putting in an application then? The tree officer round here would certainly have something to say if it was done up my way.??
  6. Hodge
    Why they selling it I wonder?
  7. Hodge
    If someone wants to buy it to mill then cool but round here they want it for nowt. I'm logging up all the time so it just goes on the pile and gets done when it gets done. No probs. I've had it before with a carver, wanted a lump of sycamore I had but didn't wanna pay for it, but he would carve it and asks for a load of money for it. Go figure??
  8. Hodge
    It's ok to say they should be milled but if nobody will cough up a decent price then I can make more from logging it. I know it's a shame but cash is king.

    I wouldn't hold your breath mate, I have 2 coming out tomorrow, bigger than yours and put them out to wood turners etc, none were prepared to pay much at all. The customer wanted £100 which I think is very fair. I will now be cutting up for logs as worth much more and less hassle. Good luck anyway.

    If they fell it without consent due to it being in a CA then they will be in trouble. Make the PC aware of this.

  12. Hodge

    As many as possible. Get a big overdraft and don't worry! Life's to short.

    Pricing without seeing a job in my opinion is stupid and I would never do it. I was nearly offering a guide.
  17. Hodge
    Err, is the last paragraph for him or me?
  18. Hodge
    And your point is? Give him some advice on pricing then.
  19. Hodge
    Depends on your daily cost plus wage.. I would charge say £450 plus vat including all the waste away.
  20. Hodge
    It's easy, monthly costs divided by 4 gives you your weekly running costs then divide that by how many days you want to work per week and hey presto that's your daily cost, then add in your wage and some profit and that's what to charge. Simples init!😎

    I've just had an Insurance company ask me if the quote I have given is my best price, bloody cheek. I told them that unlike insurance company's my price only goes up! Take it or get someone else bloody pee takers.

    No Lad, £300 + Vat.

    When I used to buy timber I had to have a 6 and drag, the drag was left in a lay by while the 6 came into the yard to drop, then they went and put the timber off the drag onto the 6 and then the 6 brought that. This used to cost an extra £100 plus vat. The 6 and drag used to carry about 25 tonne.
