Is $1,100 to widen gap around a tree in the deck a fair price?
Project Details
My house has a good sized Cyprus tree coming up out of the middle of the deck. My wife likes the shade, but the tree is growing into the decking. I'm worried the tree will get choked off, die, and be a pain. I'm also wondering if this is something I can fix myself with a circular saw, given where the weight-bearing beams are, especially since I'm furloughed due to the government shutdown and have time.
