When you own a home
@Taurisk there will always be a need to put your hand in your pocket unless you want to
almost kill yourself doing some things.
With trees, most if not all here in Melbourne will strictly follow OH and S which adds to the expense but it could also
save a life.
And then there is the Home Insurance to think about as well.
I got a report from an arborist saying my birch would have to come out in about 2 years so I had it heavily pruned but
months later I thought the risk too great.
Where many have a big problem in the city is with councils and street trees. They just hate taking any street tree
out it seems, irrespective of any damage it is doing. Time and time again you see it and they will not let an individual
take one out either.
