Just been quoted that today, one days work for three blokes incl. materials. Reasonable?
That's on top of the £1000 ive just spent on having the garden flagged over.
EDIT : That's for a new fence BTW

not enough info
whit????????????
Guessing your fence is not very long ?
Indeed, is it an 80 foot fence with a 100 foot Birch?
Six panels + posts, panels are big ones six ft tall. I can't shift the tree myself or get the fence parts in as I don't have access to a wagon so I have to pay someone. Fence is 8 panels long but two are staying.
£600 for the fence and £100 to remove the tree debris (cut it down today)
Have you got a problem with people making a living?
I work with a guy who seems to think he is a charity 🙄
Hopefully for not much longer 😉
Seems about right to me. Offer 500 cash and take it from there..
Not at all, I took the guy up and he starts weds, just wondered if I'm being a mug. Dont like haggling & ive no idea of what this sort of thing costs

Eh? It's a quote for work, not a starting price for bartering. Client starts that guff with me and i walk.
Cheerio then
Fair enough - looks like a good quote then!
He's the brother of the lady who laid my flagstones in the garden, happy with that work.
Is that a euphemism?
I hope not!
Is he insured for the tree work? Trees don't always fall where they should.
I had a 20ft section of tree/shrub line reduced and two 3ft stumps removed for £450. It was a comparable quote across 3 are company's this one with a 5% mates mates rate discount. 1.25 days work for two chaps and equipment including a chipper.
Your seems fair tbh op.
Tree is already down, myself and a friend dropped it and chopped it this afternoon. Just a lot of rubbish to shift now which is something I can't do.
