Alan and Lissy however were the proverbial drowned rats completing a hedge reduction and then a Conifer dismantle in the relentless rain 🌧️🌧️🌧️

We did not manage to avoid the showers today πŸ˜žπŸ˜­πŸ¦†

It was also one of those days of reducing the height of a hedge, a tree surgeons favourite 🫣

Thank goodness it's 5 o'clock!!!

I don't know how we managed it but we avoided the showers, hail, thunder and lightning πŸŽ‰

Which was quite the good thing as Alan was perched atop a large Holly and we had a long drag through some building works 🫣🀣

Top work from Lissy today who was Queen of the Chipper for this beast of a multi stemmed Conifer πŸ‘‘πŸ’ͺ🏻

It was slow going from The Boss for the top part due to a number of BT lines running through the canopy but after that there was no stopping either of them

Moving forwards the customer won't have the ongoing cost of maintaining the tree to keep it out of the cables, or the worry about it growing over the footpath, and in time the Hawthorn hedge will grow much better without the competition for water and nutrients.

This Sycamore was in decline and had quite the lean on, towards the main road and some BT lines. Alan made short work of dismantling the top and then felling the stem to eliminate any risk moving forwards.

Going, going, gone πŸͺ“πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸͺ

Not really 🀣 we used our stump grinder on this job so that the roots of the Eleagnus were completely removed to enable new turf to be laid.

Alan did however blunt his freshly sharpened axe on our second job of the day πŸ«£πŸ˜”

Day 2 at Holmes Chapel Community Centre for Holmes Chapel Parish Council and the big job today was to make a hard reduction on an overstood Beech hedge before it grew into a lot of tall Beech trees. We also removed a number of small dead trees and reduced the height on a large Holly and the whole area is much brighter 😊

Fuelled by a delicious breakfast from the cafe we also gave the small hedge at the front a really hard trim as there were a lot of self seeded Sycamore growing through it. Whilst it looks a little drastic, moving forwards it will be a much neater hedge.

First up for the week was some work at Holmes Chapel Community Centre for Holmes Chapel Parish Council.

We started by reducing back some of the growth of 2 trees that was blocking the floodlights, and also crown lifted them over the access road to make it easier for the delivery lorries.

We then headed down to the woodland area by the skate park to remove 2 dead trees to eliminate any risk of them dropping any branches. They made quite the mess, shattering on impact. Back for round 2 tomorrow.

No photos as we were far too busy, so instead it's beautiful blooms from a lovely garden I visited over the weekend 😍

A little cooler today thank goodness whilst we dismantled an Ash tree showing signs of decline due to Ash dieback.

Situated over the car park and maintenance yard area of Holmes Chapel Primary School we have removed all of the brash from the top to eliminate the risk of falling branches whilst leaving the trunk as perfect habitat for wildlife, including Woodpeckers 🀞🏻

The school community are enthusiastic users of the outdoor spaces for learning so they had all of the woodchip for their paths, and the timber which they are going to use for seating, stepping stones, and activities 😍
