Not sure, we do mainly domestic atm with some commercial work. Is the 7.5ton a bit big for domestic? Currently got a Renault master but its single rear wheels and needing something that will take alot more.. plan is to keep that and get something that will take more weight. Looking at nissan cabstars but just seeing if anyone can advise for or against anything

Yeah i dont want to take the piss but i never charge per hour as it doesnt make sense to, always go by the job... i could do a job in 2 hours that might take you 4 or vice versa. So just asking to see roughly what hourly rate others are charging for this type of work? also ive had to to rearrange a ton of work and mess people about to get this done so wouldnt make sense to charge the same rate

Got a load of emergency work through a local council. Didn't give a price was just told the work needs done and send an invoice later, its early starts and late finishes but I have never done work where i haven't gave a price beforehand and its an on going line.. so just looking for some guidance on what to charge per hour for a team of 3?
Advice appreciated
Thanks

Went to price a job a couple of weeks ago, the customer said he was waiting on a few other guys coming. I sent him the quote of £550, he replied at the time saying he will review it. Now 2 weeks later hes messaged to say he wants me to do the job but its slightly over his budget... could i do it for £500?
Not bothered about the 50 quid but the fact this guys got at least 3 quotes... i must be the cheapest and hes still got the cheek to ask for something off it.
This seems to be happening more often now and was wondering how everyone else responds to people trying to get money off just for the sake of it.

Hi, I have been asked to provide a bird nesting report prior to starting a large job. Is the something most companys do themselfs or is it better sourcing someone externally? Just not sure as to exactly how much detail or information would be in a report other than saying there is a bird in your tree!

Hi, I know nothing about tippers or hydraulic systems but my tipper is stuck half way up... it wont go up or down. Checked the hydraulic fluid ... seems fine. Any idea what the next most likely cause would be?

Looking at getting a stump grinder about the 5k mark. Currently having to turn away stumps which in turn has lost me tree work. Thinking of going for the predator 360, would this take out large stumps? Or am i better going for something more expensive. Thanks

I have recently done my tickets and started up myself and i want to learn how to identify trees and more or less have a good knowledge about when to cut certain species. Whats the best way to go about it? Any online courses?
-
Yeah i just thought thought arb was maybe an accredited qualification which had a governing body rather than just having chainsaw tickets without any tree knowledge
-
Whats the difference between an arb and a tree surgeon? To be a qualified arb is there a specific qualification you need?
