My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

should i wait to cut up a fallen tree?

14 years ago

Was wondering if it is better to cut up a fallen tree while it is still freshly fallen or to wait till it has time to dry out? to me seems the longer it sits, the more brittle it would be, then being easier to cut up. But i am just not sure. Its a pine tree by the way. thanks
