I all,
I am trying to find out my rights on the above issue.
My neighbours tree that he planted a few years back has got real big !! Over the last couple of years it had started to lift the concrete sleepers my fence sits on and thus has lifted the fence up about 4 inches. Lately we have noticed our lovely patio has started to lift, this patio cost us a fortune to have fitted and where it is lifting it is at an angle that is heading for out house extension. The house is only about 15 feet away from the tree as it is.
I have asked our neighbour some time ago if he could cut the tree down as its lifting the fence but he was not bothered.
What are my rights ? Can I take action against him to get the tree cut down ?
Any help and advise please ?
Regards Bacus
