Bad news though - it got damaged today. Some &%$#@! obviously decided it was in their way when they were doing the sewer connections and a large branch has been ripped off the tree. I haven't seen it in person but I am very annoyed as it has taken off a fair amount of bark off the trunk, and you can see the branch on the ground: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Possibly the same dolt has also driven over one of the reinforcing bars for the front portico pillar and flattened it: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ They can't avoid this one cause there are some telltale tracks leading up to it. They also left a massive mound of sand on the slab from digging down the side, so goodness knows what they are doing with it. The site supervisor and admin have both been emailed with photos so we'll see what they say about it all. Oh, and happy 300 posts to me... Re: Westy's Demo/Rebuild in Perth - it's a SLAB!! 179Sep 08, 2010 11:28 pm Hey westy ~ congratulations on your slab! At long last! Hooray! Boo to that idiot that ripped that branch from the tree. Hopefully no long term damage. It's great to see stuff happening for you. ~ cheers, J _______________________________________________________________ We're a knockdown | rebuild ~ Melb SE burbs Building modified version of the Fairhaven Glenaire Homeone thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=28429 _______________________________________________________________ Re: Westy's Demo/Rebuild in Perth - it's a SLAB!! 180Sep 09, 2010 11:52 pm glad to be of service (re the tree name). BTW, so long as the tree is not ring-barked, it should survive the damage done to it. As for the reinforcing steel rod, similar thing happened to mine but they just straigtened it up when they began bricking.
