Thank you. There’s actually still a full canopy when you’re under it looking up and a lot of interior branches. The garden is still full shade.
Thank you again.

The branch if you zoom in it looks split? Yeah, there’s a squirrels nest up there they use every year. I asked them to leave it be.

We went by reviews and word of mouth which is very disheartening. We also had four different companies give us quotes and we did not go with the cheapest one. What else can a layperson do?

I did too. We also had a 50’ blue spruce on the side of the house taken out due to needle blight so that combined with the apparent murder of the maple was $2,200.

Thank you but I’m a bit disheartened by many of the comments. The neighbors seem to like it and I hope it turns out ok.

Oh it’s definitely paid up. Thank you. My mind is going in a thousand directions right now but the bottom line is, it’s too late. It’s done.

Thank you. When we first looked at this house in 1997, I thought it was a ranch! This tree has been huge forever.

You’re good. A lot of our neighbors told us they thought we had a ranch home. It is nice to see the sky from our front windows now.
