Looks like a forest around this house. What do these people expect.
people are too cheap when it comes to maintenance on their trees
they piss away money on european vacations every year and fancy cars but won’t break open their wallet to do the required trimming.
Since this home had damage a few years ago, it make one wonder if the former owners (at that time) were too cheap to remove the tree that was obviously not healthy enough not to keep shedding branches… and we didnt have much wind. imagine what will happen in town if we have a strong windstorm while the trees are still top heavy full of leaves.
Tree maintenance is critical but I don’t think they are cheap, it’s just that Tree service companies charge a fortune, why is that. Realize it is manual labor and risky but 900 to cut two limbs
Tree companies do charge a lot unfortunately. Thank all the lawyers who are responsible for jacked up insurance premiums for workers compensation and liability insurance
I bet you pay 900 for someone to install your xmas decorations or do a yard cleanup of the leaves
