Question

Neighbors pine trees are growing into my fence. The trees are not more than saplings less than 2 years old ,the fence has been here for over 20 years. Can I get rid of these trees since they are growing under and thru my fence? They also are directly under power and phone lines.

Answer 1

Have you tried talking to your neighbours?

Anything that grows onto your side of the fence can be chopped off by you.

If the trees are damaging your fence - which will result in causing you undue expense, you can contact your council for advice on how to manage the situation.

Answer 2

Hochie is right, If it grows across your fence you can cut it off
