Elderly man quoted $3000! to chop some trees, young man comes to the rescue

What a job this turned out to be, I can’t believe prior to me he was quoted that much! Let’s just say I saved this elderly man thousands and was happy too. We got bogged in the back field where we were disposing of the green waste! too bad it wasn't captured on camera. I was blessed my son came with me to get it done. All in all it took us about FIVE hours of hard work but we got there in the end. I will return to finish the garden with a load of mulch bark to tidy it all up. Wow so much Wysteria vine, it was growing through the house! we were nearly buried in it. IM just glad we had the Milwaukee Pruning saw that I recently purchased - all I can say, it EXCEEDED my expectations especially with the awesome battery life.
hope you enjoy this video.
equipment used:
Milwaukee FUEl 18V Pruning Saw 8 inch
Stihl GTA 26 pruning saw
Honda line trimmer
stihl blower
Eyemuffs G6 for PPE

I loathe people who try to take advantage of elderly people! I'm so glad you were able to do this. That poor yellow hibiscus needs to have a good cut-back. It would bush up nicely. Wish we could see it when you've mulched it all, I know it will look great. I like how you were careful to blow off the neighbour's driveway and the little road. Good work!

The little saws are amazing. I got the Stihl one and an extra battery. Used it for taking down a fair few trees hanging over our club house and didn't get through 1 battery. I did have my big one for the trunk but everything else was cut with the hand held one.

[@debrabrooks6138]

What you did was great and looks terrific! I thank you for helping this man! There is something I need to point out, if any part of the wisteria root remains, it will grow back, as is for the hardwoods, you cut down, Those will eventually grow back, especially the juniper, I used to do landscaping here in Pennsylvania USA and I was paid similar to dig out the tree roots and removal of the trees. I wish you all the best! Bless you in all you do!

Wow, $3,000.00 for that? They were trying to take advantage of the old guy.

[@mowitmick]

Yep that’s what I thought too, or maybe just didn’t want to help him out so have a ridiculous quote

[@jeannewheeldon6796]

And I thought that £600-£700 to cut down and get it off my yard of a pretty tall conifer was a lot of money. I still think it's a lot of money, that's probably why it's still there. It is very odd how you can hate a tree.

[@Hatbox948]

@@jeannewheeldon6796 I know the feeling. We have a big acorn tree out back that's leaning towards the house. If it falls it's going to land smack dab on top of the house. They want way too much to cut it. We're just in limbo with it.

@@mowitmick hubby keeps telling me the one he has on a stick does the job but watching you guys using the hand held one, it looks much more versatile. Might have to sneak down to Bunnings and buy myself one 😁. I would have to get ryobi though so I can use hubbies batteries.

Sad to see those beautiful trees 8:51 cut and taken away. Poor babies. I would have rescued them if I was there. Its so not fair, they did not do anything to anyone.

[@mowitmick]

I agree it wasn’t great. However the retirement village recycles the green waste by mulching it and returning it to garden beds and landscaping etc that’s where I was taking the branches to be disposed.

[@timnash6870]

TIM from Canada reciprocating saw can do the same thing as that chainsaw…. you do not have to worry about putting the oil in your chainsaw. Do you not have to worry about changing out your chain when you have reciprocating saw… Milwaukee M18 fuel reciprocating saw can do the same thing

Wisteria vine is beautiful... BUT it will tear down fences, bust brick and block footings. You can plant it 100 ft from your house and then find it busting up your footings. Bad plant.

[@cathiwim]

It’s considered invasive in America

[@williamburdon6993]

I thought one hand was ok too. Then the saw caught a branch just right , climbed up it and just missed taking my hand off . Use 2 hands !

As you work , it’s difficult to see what kind of job you’re doing!!!! Perhaps wider angle

[@tenstreet-007]

Client should have had you remove all those bushes/trees. Would have looked better removed and wouldn't scratch cars driving by. You might want to get a tarp to pile on the branches and drag it to the truck instead of wearing yourself out with numerous trips. Save your energy and work smarter not harder. Nice job.

[@alfredpedneau9598]

How much were the Tip fees 🤔 ???

[@mowitmick]

The complex has its own green waste disposal where they mulch it and reuse in gardens and landscaping. That’s where I was taking the branches.

[@cathiwim]

If this is a retirement village, why are the individual homeowners having to pay for this work? Don’t they have a groundskeeping crew whose job it is to see that the grounds are maintained?

"I see it as my Christian ✝ responsibility to help out when I can!. For me to make this a long term thing, I need help from YOU (my viewers) to help me fund this mission into the future. Let's get mowing!" The Didache, Chapter 11, last sentence in the 2nd paragraph. "If he asks for money, he is a false prophet". It is fine to accept offers of help, but not to ask for money. "Didache" means "The Teaching of the Apostles". It is the earliest writings of the Church, from around 70 AD.

[@mowitmick]

I’m not ASKING for money your interpretation is wrong, I’m merely pointing out that with my viewers help I can achieve my goal of offering free yard mows for those who would otherwise be unable to do it themselves. The ‘funding’ ultimately comes from KZbin revenue which is based on how many views and subscribers I have which will directly impact my ability to keep this going into the future and make it part of my business model. Thank you for teaching me a new word though.

[@Demun1649]

@@mowitmick I do find, throughout my ministry, that I am meeting so-called Bible Christians, who claim to know the Bible, but know absolutely nothing about the history of either the Church or the Bible. What you do is worthwhile, so you could relight the fires. Buy a copy of "Early Christian Writings", edited by Maxwell Staniforth and Andrew Louth, in the Penguin Classics Series. It contains the "Didache", 'Did a Kee', as well as the Christian Fathers and their Epistles. All of them were taught by the Apostles, the real ones, not the fake modern day heretics. Clement, Ignatius, Polycarp, Diognetus and Barnabus. There is so much to learn from them about the interpretation of the modern understandings, and errors, of the Bible.
