treeseer said:I spent 1.5 hours in a fairly big red maple today; not as tall but with lower limbs largely intact. it had mild-moderate damage from the ice storm 2 years ago. Nowhere near the tip work needed on some in the pics, if I'm seeing right.
'Negative benefit' , we'll have to start calling you Diplomatic Dan.
Timber, post a pic of the trunks, especially if you see any areas with black streaks. I'm seeing a lot of Phytophthora on older maples lately; today's tree had it and woodborers too.
Also please post a pic of the scar tissue growing around those pruning wounds from 9 years ago. If the wounds are closed, maybe these critics will ease up on you.
O and those other tree guys who haven't come by to give a free estimate--maybe they're too busy, or maybe they think you're a price-shopper who doesn't care about quality. :alien:
People get crazy ideas, you never know from where.
