Hello. I am new to the community and created my account specifically for this post. I live in Bakersfield, CA, and have two redwoods on my property that are damaging one of my walls and possibly our home's foundation. We have begun gathering quotes but I found during research there is a possibility to sell the wood to help offset the cost or even come out "ahead".
The "left" redwood has a DBH of 30" while the "right" redwood has a DBH of 34". To my knowledge, this measurement is taken at about 4 1/2' from above the ground which is what I did. To my estimation, the trees are about 50' tall. I am not entirely sure about the health/grade of the trees but have tried to include adequate pictures to help determine that. Would these trees have any value? And are there recommended lumber yards or lumber mills in the southern California region worth reaching out to? For reference, the cheapest quote we have gotten for removal (including stump grinding) has been 4k. Thank you!
