    You assume too much. Go on then Mark, throw your money at the new Gods of business, the masters of the dark arts of the net, I get them on the phone 5 times a day trying to tell me about it.
  2. Mick Dempsey
    What if they’re busy with well paid work? Why would they care about marketing strategy what someone in marketing thinks?
  3. Mick Dempsey
    Are you having a stroke?

    I think you confuse the website of a company with the company itself. I know of a couple of small lucrative tree companies that have no website or a very simple one at best. Its not all about SEOs or engagement or hits. It’s about equipment and expertise. Websites are just a tool to get you in front of the client (if it’s a new client) or for your existing clients to get in touch with you.

    Anyone who works and gets paid is a professional. What’s your point?
  6. Mick Dempsey
    Very surprising.
  7. Mick Dempsey
    Was it a TO spec?
  8. Mick Dempsey
    What does feature in your life these days Mark? (Climbing wise)

    You can hit them pretty hard, I’ve done a few and they come back strong. Coppicing I don’t know, probably not advisable.

    If you drive on their roads you follow their rules.

    I knew that job was going to be a clusterfook when you said about stacking the branches outside.

    Hi there, where is the tractor please?
  13. Mick Dempsey
    Stumps are heavy and awkward to lift, leave it to foolish youngsters.

    That was not your objective, it was to get a TO to put an order on the tree.

    Call me old fashioned, but when people outside the industry come on here looking for advice, I like to think they can get opinions, viewpoints but not hoodwinked by people like you who should know better. I use other professional forums as an ingénu for all sort of advice from fishing lakes to oven repairs to Land Rover engines and been grateful for the advice. I’d be disappointed if people were less than honest me to further their agenda.

    Not from you that’s for sure, you’ve already tried to trick the op.
  18. Mick Dempsey
    Depends, if you watch the nest and there are no birds visiting then it’s fine. A reduction on the scale you want (looking at the plane trees you posted) is not really a viable option on someone else’s tree. But you could trim branches back to your boundary, within reason. Have you more photos showing the overhang in your garden?
  19. Mick Dempsey
    Then you do periodic re-reductions and thin outs, you know, tree work.

    In the summer they’d look the same, in the winter only a tree bloke would know the difference.
  21. Mick Dempsey
    I get the impression that this is a cash in hand, pay as you go arrangement.
  22. Mick Dempsey
    I don’t really buy the ‘tree was there first’ argument in these situations.
  23. Mick Dempsey
    Do NOT get in touch with a tree officer, he may well slap a TPO on it and you’ll be in a world of pain. That was a disingenuous post by Khriss, trying to trick you.
  24. Mick Dempsey
    I’d charge the same to fell and chip as chip if you felled it.
  25. Mick Dempsey
    3 of them would not have got 250 a day.
