  1. Just a heads ups to all fellow Tree Surgeons in the general Hitchin area, that we had a break-in, during broad daylight last Saturday Afternoon. The car seen was a Black Golf GTI (thats all we know). We were lucky as they left empty handed!
  2. Hi, This is the statement I always use if and when I have had payment issues. Its never failed me yet!! Good Luck ..................................... It is with regret that we are now contacting you for the final time to request that you settle the amount owing without fail by the --/--/2015. We wish to settle this manner amicably however should you have not made payment by the date stated --/--/2015 we will begin County Court action against you without further notice.
  3. Thanks Gary noted, I have requested that the customer obtains a simple written statement (and drafts it for the tree owner) as suggested by Paul in this case just cover cover all bases. As I mention this is a first for me. Thanks all for your comments.
  4. The plan is to conduct a major limb removal prior to building works be carried out.
  5. Thanks, yes overhanging limbs can be legally cut back and the local tree officer is happy. My point relates to not having anything in writing from the tree owner.
  6. Hi All, Please could I have your advice on the following: I have been asked to remove a large limb from a tree which overhangs a garden. The tree owner ( a very elderly lady) has given verbal permission to the potential customer. I have conducted all the normal checks and there are no restrictions. My concern is that the TREE OWNER permission given are not in writing. The potential customers do not believe that they will get written permission from her as she has been difficult to raise, mainly due to older age etc. So the main question is would you & should I pass on this job unless its all confirmed in writing? Thanks
  7. PS I brought my arb trolley one year ago and have use it twice!
  8. Hi All, Just wondering what this Walnut trunk may be worth, milled/unmilled etc? Sorry I can't seem to rotate the pics!! Thanks

  11. True! I have a large amount of recently milled 400 year old oak at the moment so a bit milled out at the moment, though if theres anyone interested in the Plane feel free to get in touch.
  12. Hi Steve, I reckon 1.5 inches if that to be honest when we conduct the reductions as they are only small
  13. Hi Steve, if thats for me no its not being felled, just reduced am afraid!
  14. I have too many planks at the moment which don't keep me warm!!!!
  15. Its around 25 metres high or so
  16. Thanks in advance, the 2 pictures are all I have at this stage!
  17. Hi all, I will see if I can load a picture on asap, yes 100% Plane, would be willing to sell the trunk if anyone wanted it or sadly it will become firewood this time!! Its in the Radeltt area.
  18. Thanks guys, its a monster thats for sure!!
  19. Could I ask your thoughts on London Plane as firewood, I will be removing a mature tree shortly and plan to use as firewood if suitable. Does it burn well, soft/hardwood etc? Thanks
