I've been itching to let you in on a little information regarding a positive transition of my garden design…

"I've recently got the kma130. My km131r is getting very little use now. I know it is the combi and not a dedicated long reach. Great reduction in weight noise and vibration. I last longer! Also there is no pulling of the starter cord when balanced…"
"Without knowing the age of the hedge and consequently how well its establised/thickness of the trunk + roots, how you're disposing of the waste, it's really impossible to give an idea of price."
"Thanks Ben.
I’m in the Midlands.
Approx width is about 3.5/4ft. I was thinking to dig the stumps out, but there’s about 10 of them. :-("

"Depending on the width of the hedge I would over estimate rather than under estimate the amount of waste. Confiers always seem to bulk up. Also there will be loads of dead material at the base if the hedge is quite thick. Are you hiring a stump g…"
"I'd probably price it at a day plus waste"
Evening all, looking for some advice please. Currently got a job I’m trying to price up which includes removing a row of conifers which act a hedge between the 2 neighbours. There’s about 10 stumps and the conifers are approx 10ft tall. Any advice…
"The curve and the materials are the least of the worries. The scale is the problem. When the path was originally done the edging was probably installed first and then infilled. Will be difficult to achieve such a tight job again. Easiest way is to g…"
"To maintain the privacy Dan is spot on, clear out around the bottom, expose the trunks, lift the canopy and thin it out. More light will get in which will improve the feel of the area and allow a bigger choice of plants underneath. There will defini…"
"Cut tot he ground and it will re-grow - but do it sooner rather than later if you wanted re-growth this year."
" These regrow from drastic cuts very quickly and are indestructible .................. if you cut this down to the ground in the Spring , you could have something 5-6' tall by the end of the Summer. Bit late in the year now to achieve this but do i…"
"The only thing with the husky and the echo is that the trigger looks like it could catch on something and snap off. I notice that the latest stihl long reach hedge cutters have the same sort of arrangment. It may just be me be pedantic. "
"I bought the hla 85 last year and have been very impressed, almost as good for cutting as the kombi with long reach. Lighter, quieter and no mixing of fuels, elescopic makes it very long. Battery life, I have 2 x ap 200, s and they will go all day…"
"I use Stihl, an FS90. I'm on my 2nd now after 10 years and that's only because the first one was stolen! As ben says, they are easy to service and grease, there's not a lot to go wrong with them and they have none of the problems the larger 4 mix ma…"
