1 Tree 2or3 feet across the stump. Down with a large part of the tree on the roof of a house. It will be cut and removal of the entire tree. Sorry I don't have more info but just got the call yesterday and have not seen it yet. Thanks in advance.

pictures!
 
Sorry no pics, But did look at it today.

Ok I looked at it today, It is about 50ft. It not on the house but one limb is leaning on the roof of the 2nd story deck. The most of the weight I hope is on the ground and on the limb that is leaning on the roof. The reason I say hope is becouse there is a boat under there the tree could be on but can't see good enough to be shure untill we get some of the smaller limbs out of the way. We don't have a bucket truck so the hope is to cut enough to get the boat out from under it and then use a truck and ropes to roll the tree away from the house. Any input or sugestions would be welcomed.

Sorry I thought this forum was so new guys could get guidance and help.

Well it is but if you come in asking a question like that and expect an honest answer your going to get a lot of ball busting... But with the idea of REALLY trying to help I posted that video of Murph because in my opinion thats a pretty good example of how to safely remove a tree from a roof with minimal equipment.

I think Ill try cutting some limbs from under it and try to roll it off the roof does not sound like a solid safe plan to me. The first thing you need to be able to do is determine where that piece is weight loaded and then come up with a plan to remove it.

If you want some solid responses try posting a few pics you will get better advice.

guidance and help:dizzy: your asking professionals to #### a figure out of there ass with basic homeowner info. very vague, a photo would help.

do you have the proper insurance to do the job?
Have you ever actually bid a real tree job?

yes my policy is out of south bend insurance one mill also . I have done tree work for 15 year and logging before that. I have a small company in a rural area on lake superior and do strictly climbing. most my work doesent involve a bucket truck so I dont own one. I dont need Iron just sitting around. take your beat it comment and shove it up your ass. I will gladly shove it up there for you if you would like me to☺
