    'Free Tree Guy' Crushes a House

    Homeowner most likely in deep for hiring a guy without insurance (if this is the case here, perhaps he has insurance?). Homeowner's policy might have some issues with the claim...one of the main reasons NJ passed and implemented the Tree Licensing Act.

    All of the above, jackhammer, long pry bars, wire cutter, stump grinding a bit. Mini skid or wedge/sledge to pop sections. Even get the sawzall out with some fresh blades. Always sucks, try to plan the $$ right. We just hit some concrete in the middle of old oak.

    Performing Work for Clients Who You Will Never Meet Face to Face

    On rare occasion, rental properties or such, but go slow and have proper paperwork all set and signed. A telephone conversation a great idea as well. Tree work by email only can lead to miscommunication and issues. I have had those emails asking for service and all ready to pay...
