Neighbour has removed my boundary fence
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.21 PM
Can anyone advise ...my neighbours house is directly at the end of my garden ...he has removed 50ft trees the whole length of this garden and removed the boundary fence which my council inspector has said was ours ...my question is now he has erected a new higher fence the whole way along I presume that now becomes his boundary fence so can I paint my side as it looks ugly and imposing almost 3metres high ?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi no fence can be over 6ft high and when it comes to painting it your side of the fence do what you like if he has any complaints get the council on board and I am sure they will back you up.

Hi I know be past exsperiance from council that you cannot go higher than 6 ft 6 inch high.
Any higher would have to have planning permission.
As for painting the fence I cannot see a problem at all .
Depending on neighbors.
You can both try to be sensitive
