Remove trees close to house?
Mick Dempsey replied to Ben Sarafyan's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
I suppose it depends on what you explorations into the plaster reveals. -
Well then I dunno. I doubt it, but it depends.
-
Depends, builders have materials, wages on a job that might take weeks/months to complete. By and large we just have to make sure the chippers/trucks and combi cans are full

Generally, people pay. The figures we charge for domestic work are not worth not paying if you know what I mean. If you’re getting an extension done for 20 or more thousand, people can get funny. I’ve been genuinely stiffed just once in 30 odd years.

It’s a poplar. Doesn’t look too bad. Wait and see.

Mick Dempsey replied to Ben Sarafyan's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
The ‘palm tree’ is a trachycarpus, unlikely to be causing an issue. Cherries do have long roots that sit just under the surface, often causing problems for mower blades. I think I can see one going towards your house in the photo. -
Not an unreasonable question.

Prolly, and with a round anvil as well. Lift the cover and take a pic for us.

I’ll send a message. Still works for me.

@eggsarascal you used to work with a tarmac gang in your youth didn’t you? Question. How come on some stretches of road/motorway there’s sections with loads of random black lines of tar, like a toddlers scribble all over? I can’t see how it’s filling in cracks, they’re too random. All over the carriage way, then, nothing, clean as as a whistle.

Amalanchier?

What happened on line 4?

Think he’s been kicked out anyway.

It’s approaching critical mass these days. Rylan, Scott Mills and that awful traffic wanker from Radio 1 out there all week, as Chandler would say ‘Could it be any more Gay?’ Anyway I suspect some fun and games tonight with the Israeli contestant. Can you imagine if she won or did well? Ireland’s queer witch would explode.

Never hired a crane. If I did, I’d get a signed acceptance of the quote with terms and conditions etc. Occasionally I have hired cherry pickers or traffic control. I have always just paid it and made the client pay on the invoice. edit. on reflection in the crane scenario a grand up front might be a good idea.

Never taken them, never will.

Ahh, yes, perhaps. A joke that the older sorts didn’t get, makes sense.

Old fella?

Dunno, I’d be a bit unhappy about people speculating about my finances on here.
