Hi there,
My mother is having a problem. A neighbour's overgrown tree is endangering her roof. But the next door neighbours are abroad permanently, are selling the house, are uncontactable and the estate agent acting on their behalf says they are not responding to his texts. I'm sure if he had a nice offer on their house for them then they would respond but that's by the by.
What I need to know is what can she do? Can she contact the county council and get them to do something? Is there anyone who can force the issue as the estate agent is being uncooperative.
It is reaching the stage where she is thinking of getting a tree surgeon in and paying for the branches to be removed. This is something she can't afford but she is getting scared about the potential damage.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
