Approx cost of cutting back tree in front garden?

[petitepeach]

Hi - I have a largish Magnolia tree in my front garden which will need to be cut back quite a bit as too near the house....
Does anybody know what is should cost to do that one tree approx?

I know difficult to judge! Have someone coming round to give me an estimate later and just want to know it isn't wildly off the mark

That's a bit of a how long is a piece of string question

Can you tell us roughly where you live and put a picture of the tree on your profile.

I pay about £400 dayrate for a proper trained tree surgeon and his assistant. It includes removal of waste. I live in the South East close to london (so pricy) I could pay less but the guy I use works really hard and is tidy and trustworthy.

I know! Thanks for reply ......I got a quote & it was a lot less than I thought so am happy

That's good news
