[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jdub07: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by N8: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by venomous99: [qb] im in your neighbors position now. our neighbors tree in their backyard is growing to the point that the branches are growing above our roof and has even caused some damage to our siding. is it the tree owners responsibility to trim the tree or basically is it any branch that is above our property line my responsibility to trim with their consent? [/qb][/QUOTE]I am sure if it is causing damage you have some leverage. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yup if it is still ON the tree and grew into your house and damaged it then the tree is not being maintained properly. The tree owner then does need to do something. Being the tree owner myself if my neighbor came over nicley, introduced himself, shook my hand or even pretended to be nice I might have listened to him more but he was an A-hole from the get go so I have no sympothy. Also you can cut the branches but just let them know first. Verbal is fine you don't have to put it in writing but they do say it isn't a bad idea to do so. Also if the tree dies do to your cutting it you can be liable for up to 3 times the value of the tree. Chances of you hurting the tree though are almost nill. But yeah if the brance is still connected to the tree and it is damaging your house then the tree owner isn't most likley isn't maintaining the tree as a whole. In turn he can be liable. The catch though prooving the tree is not being maintained. One arborist may say its cool while another may not. Your situation is even more borderline than mine. BUT in my defense...The tree we did just get cut down...the neighbor that had that tree over their yard, had limbs cracking off into their yard so I did take it upon myself as the tree owner to have it removed. The cost of trimming that beast was only $200 less than removing it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
