I really don't mind the ground work part and I was actually researching climbing the water oak myself until my wife found out my plans and put a stop to it.
It's pretty rare I've needed one, or the big equipment... but get estimates, ask around, or just size up a tree operation you see out and around....number's on the side of the truck...NOT the 75K new truck however . I'm always just looking for them to do what I can't or won't...at a fraction of the total job costs....just get 'r down...I'll do the rest. Definitely get "country" estimates instead of city rates...the next rural county over mebbe....good luck!
