Title: Tree Feller Needed
Post by: Rindaloo on June 16, 2012, 11:06:16 AM

Need someone to cut part of our pine down.  Its a big tree and the offending branch is high up, so I think we need a professional.  Does anyone know of someone?

Engin sorted out a huge palm tree for us - removed it entirely.

Pity I'm not out there for a while, I'm a demon with a chainsaw.  : :)

Why not go ask Orhan in the Orman Office? I'm sure he'd be able to help and he speaks reasonable English.

Eddie knows someone with a chainsaw - he cut a tree down for us - I can't remember what his name is though, and I think he did charge a lot (bt I was desparate to get the tree down!!!)

Thanks for that LoubyLou, its more the problem of getting up the tree.  It is really big and the branches require someone of suicidal tendencies, I fear.

The chap Eddie called for us definately had suicidal tendencies - he was 20ft up the mulberry tree wielding his chainsaw and brought it all down for us!!! Our neighbour kept trying to tell us to send our 16 year old son (in fact he was younger than that at the time) up the tree to chop a few branches off with a saw.......

LOL, yup, suicidal.  Thing is, this pine tree is twice height of villa, so, extra suicidal tendencies required.  Two 'would-be' suicidal Turks (not Tree Fellers) are toying with the idea of having a bash ('Having A Bash' being a degree course in Turkey), but no action yet.  Frankly I am afraid for anyone attempting it.

Paddy, Shamus, and Murphy will be over from Ireland on the next available flight, then you will have the three fellows to do the job.  :)  :)
