The_Real_TCIII Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I had 2 taken down a couple of a years ago for $750. This time its 6 or maybe 8 of them, so I'm guessing somewhere between $2 - $3K?You might be surprised, it shouldn't be exponential. Half the battle is getting their gear out there and setup. They drop those pines straight down into a pile from a cherry picker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philoshop Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 When it comes to dicey tree work, stick with a known entity. Good job, Biz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philoshop Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 There's a very good reason why you never hear about arborists being killed while cutting trees from a ladder. It's because we don't cut trees from a ladder, ever. Ever! Ever! We do dangerous stuff for a living, but cutting from a ladder is just plain stupid. You don't grow old doing dangerous work when you're stupid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizCT Posted May 31, 2017 Author Share Posted May 31, 2017 So after the neighbor puts up his fence, who can come and rip out my chain link fence for me and grade that 100 foot strip to match the rest of My backyard?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cleared all the stump grindings from the old ones and smoothed everything out for $75! I put two yards of topsoil on it and it's seededSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea the guy who did my trees will probably come back after neighbors fence goes up and use a bobcat to pull out my chain fence and grade propertySent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) Good deal Biz...Our daughter has a whole bunch around her place but they are falling down due to bug death...they need to cut a bunch before they drop.... I am just curious trying to recall past town regulations which are all different... Have you checked your towns in ground pool regulations? I know the pool was already in when you bought. Some have fencing regulations that call for you to have a fence on your property that surrounds any installed pool. I thought I'd ask before you remove your fence. Insurance policies may also(home owners) have some stipulations on that as well. Edited June 10, 2017 by growalot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
