Hi , I have a bit of a problem with a neighbour at the bottom of
my
garden ,
it is his boundry fence but whilst I've been away for a fortnight
he
has
clipped unsightly PVC screened cable to the fence on my side for
some
lighting is he allowed to do this or not ?? Its not a matter of
asking
him
as when I was doing my garden he banged on my door complaining
that
I
had
got his decking dirty !!! so from that point on we don't really
see
eye
to
eye


Speaking of fences, can I make my (miserable) neighbour maintain his
side
of
the new fence which we put up last year? It's our fence and we have
painted
our side with timbercare but he never looks after anything in his
garden.
His missus doesn't mind banging nails into our fence and growing her
roses
up it but they can't be a***ed to maintain it. Can i make him paint it
or
can I insist on access to his garden to paint it myself?


Your neighbour CANNOT attach/bang anything onto your fence without
permission ..........




Don't you mean the neighbour SHOULD not attach/bang etc.? Quite obviously,
he/she CAN if he/she wishes (the poster implies the neighbour already
HAS),
the question is, if he/she does, and you notice, what can you do about it?

Very little short of going to law, IMO, and is that really wise?

No its not wise to go to law or get into a neighbour dispute with people
as crazy as that neighbour

Best solution would be to plant Pyracantha the spikes will soon stop the
neighbour attempting to maintain his lighting cable and give him something
else to do but knock nails into other peoples fences
