Erik I do try to keep in touch . I work 72 hours a week and between work and home I haven't time for much else. I kept calling home from work to see if you had shown up. Understandibly you couldnt make it because of your driveshaft in your ford. Good Job in fixing it yourself btw
Actually heres one of the latest PM's I sent ya.
Are you ready for this ??? I hope so
Ok . I think I'm done posting to this thread. I've had enough. Why is it that I cant get a simple F@#$%ng answer withOut getting bashed by some god almighty. Eric. Truly. It isnt as bad as it looks. As for sunday I'll be at work. It appears that the majority of the roots for the trees are actually going uphill. Man all I do is feel bad when I ask questions. I think that people may just suck in general. I am thankfull for the posts that you and AxMan made. It was good to see that it's not all doom and gloom. loL! He says 1000+ for this project ! LAFF! It would have taken more than seed and shrubs to retain this beast . The amount of lumber that was rotted due to the grade being up against the garage is huge !!
G&H wanted way too much bling for the job. Prolly because they are so booked.
The guys I went with were a little more reasonable with price. They are doing a great job.
If you and Axe hadnt posted I would have taken that Elm the first day.
I think I'll just lerk here and avoid swimming with the sharks. Thank you for the help man. I'm giving these trees all I got. I'll send you a picture of the end result.

Welcome to Arborist Site.. Noobs Need Not Apply.
That is truly the message I get here. There are very few posts from newcomers that havent been bashed or put down in some way. It's beyond constructive criticism. Its ???? discouraging.
If you arent seasoned (pun intended or known you might as well forget being respected as anything else here.

Homeowners, this is your chance to ask the pros advice and questions. [add] And possibly get your @55 bashed in here for posting [/add]
Sorry for venting bro I'm just burnt out on this. Maybe someone can learn from this thread at the expence of me :/
Take care.
I posted pictures in the past on how badly the grade took over the garage and the fact that it couldnt be included in my homes appraisal because of the damage that was caused by it. I couldnt remove it myself and figured I'd have some professionals do it. I think it looks good. If I have to remove the Elm so be it . It's hard to see the big picture when you are sitting in front of a monitor. It needed to be done and so its done. I never intended for root damage to happen but it did. I'll stop wasting all of your time and stop posting here. It kinda soOks that out of all you guys only two people were willing to convey their points and views like gentelmen and not grumpy old men with black and white , right or wrong attitudes. I should leave this place feeling that I obtained knowledge in a positive way and not feel like **** for posting quesions in a forum that was intended for that purpose.
ciao
