I guess someone on here may now about this...……...
There is a fence on the left side of our property that is in need of repair / replacing (in part). The neighbour replaced the fence about ten years ago (before we moved in) apart from a short 10foot section which now needs replacing.
We discussed this with him and he seemed happy initially but now has told us he does not want the fence touching. He accused my wife of trespassing and killing one of his chickens !!
When we bought the property about five years ago the part of the fence which we now wish to replace was repaired by the previous owner as a condition of our purchasing the property. The work he did was not as good as the fence our neighbour made and it is now in need of repair / replacing.
The fence in question is on the left side of our property but to the rear of his property - if that makes sense.
We are now getting someone in to replace the fence that is broken and the work will be to a higher standard than previously.
Are we entitled to effect the repairs / replacement or do we need his permission ?
We don't want any money from him but he's refusing to discuss and completely blanks me and my wife.
We will tell the contractor under no uncertain terms is he to trespass (set a single toe) on our neighbours land whilst he replaces the fence. The work involves the citing of three concrete posts, gavel boards and fence panel(s).
Apologies to all for the non climbing content but I do see lots of posts on different things on here.
Hoping someone can advise
Thanks
