Tough estimate today. Clients really want to keep their big spruce in her back yard. Problem: 4 big branches off damaged crotch at 30'. Crotch is split down centre of stem. 3 of 4 big branches need removal, in my opinion, to at least make it safe. Leaving one, to allow the tree to remain a tree, would look very strange. Cabling is not really an option in my opinion. Too much exposure. Recommended total removal. People really do get attached to their trees, wish I could save it for them.
