As you know, there has been a tree growing into our house.
We’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to discuss this with our neighbors. It
came on Friday while Ben and I were having long islands on the front porch
after a long week at work.
I suggested to our neighbor that I call a few contractors to
compare bids in this upcoming week.
He said that he’d trim the tree on Saturday.
This isn’t a small tree. He’s not a professional (read:
licensed) tree trimmer. He seemed pretty certain, though, so we agreed that he
would work on it this weekend - even though we were going out of town.
I was not sure what to expect when I got home last night,
but I was fairly surprised to not have downed power lines or a tree branch
through our roof. He cut the tree back so that the larger limbs are no longer
putting pressure on the roof. I’m still not sure how to properly thank him helping us in this huge way.
Before/After |
I did the research and DC does have yard waste pickup, so getting rid of this shouldn't be too much of a problem:
