So a few years ago after all the strong winds we had my garden fence (the one to my left) was scrap.
I went out and bought 11 new fence panels and replaced them all. Job done.
Now the fence on my right has been getting worse for a few years. The house is rented out to a polish family who I get on with well enough and I have asked them to get the fence fixed. They tell me they have no money to pay for it, so I told them that maybe the landlord should get it fixed for them.
A few months ago I saw the landlord who on a friday comes and collects the rent from them. I asked him to get the fence fixed and he just said ok.
The fence is now at a point where in a day or two my dogs are going to be running around in their garden as well as mine.
I feel I am hitting my head against a brick wall and everyone is just waiting for me to pay to get it done myself.
Now I am pretty sure the landlord is not declaring his earnings from this property to the good old taxman. So can I use that in any way ?
