I called a tree removal company (Kerry) this past week concerning a tree in my yard that I have not liked for a couple of years. I planted it as a seedling without any thought. I actually planted it too close to the back fence. It is a fast growing tree with large roots. So, I thought about removing it. On Wednesday of this past week, I had Kerry come out to give me an estimate. I spoke to him on Friday morning and told him to remove the tree, along with another one that was on the other side of my fence, but still on my property. He told me he would put me on the schedule for Monday. When I came home on Friday afternoon, the trees were already gone. There was so much more sun in my backyard!
I spent today sawing branches off of my neighbor's magnolia tree. The vines are so thick that once I sawed off the large branches, they didn't fall to the ground because the vines had the branches ensnared. It took me three hours to get all of the branches on my side of the fence sawed off.
Kerry came over to discuss removing the brush and vines behind my fence. The vines are so thick that it is impossible to even see anything behind my fence. They are growing overhead and underfoot. So, I hired Kerry to clean out behind the fence. When I put in my new fence, I'm going to move it in a foot so there is more room behind it to get behind there to clean it out. I'm also going to have a gate installed on the back fence so I have access to clean behind there. (I do fear the snakes that are back there, though.)
Here are some before and after pictures.
