  1. Hello everyone, taking down a large trunk this Saturday for just seeing if anyone would like any pieces, 1–3 tonne per piece 1.5m wide and 4 meters long roughly jobs in Woldingham Kent this Saturday
  2. Hello everyone, I have a job to remove a large oak trunk/tree it’s about 13M and at the base 1.2M across, I’m thinking an Hiab with a crane boom would be the best option to remove the tree (this way it would only take 10 or so cuts. Let me know if you can help or if you’d recommend a company. job is in woldingham
  3. Thankyou mark, makes perfect sense, I will advise the client on letting the insurance company know if she’d like to, their not massive but wasn’t sure about conifers as well so thought I’d make this post.
  4. Hi Dan, Thankyou for your reply I’ll definitely consider that and the other reply’s going forward.
  5. Hi mark, could you please explain, what I’ve been led to understand is if you take out such a large tree so close to a building, let’s say a 130 year old willow, the about of water that sucks up a day, completely removing it would cause damages to nearby buildings.
  6. Hello everyone, need a bit of advice about removing these 4 trees close to a building, I’ve done 2 or 3 stage takedowns before and am just wondering, would it be best to advise the client on talking down 2 to begin with and the another 2 a year or so on.
  7. It’s a lovely garden and a well kept house so doubt they’ll want 6 ton of wood left on site, I’ve now let it go, I said to the client for a finalised quote would cost £200 and he could be looking at 8-12k in total £200 just so he doesn’t waste my time and about 4k profit for the stress it would cause me. I feel like contacting him in a couple of months to see how it’s been dealt with maybe I’m not seeing the full picture. Been doing this for 11 years now but every day is a leaning day. I’ll keep you guys posted 👍
  8. I have done a few dodgy dead rigging jobs but it’s too far gone.
  9. I thought about seeing the sizes on thin tracked mewp but there’s 2 right angles. had a conversation with the client today and some superstar has priced him a £2000. Good luck to him 🥶 bigger balls than me
  10. I’d climb the trunk but limb walking the 15M long limb, rigging and felling large limbs is a no go
  11. Thankyou for all the replies, it’s in a very nice garden 200m away from the front house, so crane the mewp in and drive the mewp to the end of garden. No wall to remove, about 7 gardens away from other access
  12. Hello everyone. I have a job where it’s a 22M oak that’s been left to rot thats 100% unclimbable and there are 2 out houses underneath it. my question is can you lift a large mewp by a crane on a public road over the house into a back garden?
  13. Hello everyone, I’ve recently started my own company in February, I’m currently using someone else’s truck chipper and tools but I can’t use them this Saturday and don’t want to let the customer down. Let me know if you could be of some help or know anyone that can be Based in westerham, Redhill Sevenoaks way. thanlyou all 👍
