Re: Fencing / Retaining wall help 14Aug 22, 2011 2:20 pm Funnily enough the cost of the retaining wall was only $990 and the fence was $750. The retaining wall is currently doing it's job but it's not the ideal sized timber and it's also not termite protected (apparently something was sprayed on it after it was erected which doesn't help for the bits underground). Either way, that's a whole other side point. I think what annoys us the most is that he pops his head over the fence and flaps about the invoice with the assumption that he's straight up entitled to half of everything. He either has no clue or he is being a bit shifty and hoping we don't have a clue. End of the day, you don't know if someone has the ability to be an annoying so & so and we all have to live next to each other for a long time no doubt. So, we'll go halves for the fence & tell him to bugger off re his retaining wall. Thanks again everyone. Oh and I spoke to Council in the end and the Building Surveyor there told me without a doubt that he was responsible for the retaining wall and gave his name & number for the neighbour to call if he needed confirmation.

Have a good day 4 5194 Thanks for your reply! All valid points and I agree with you on many of them. I am in QLD, any recommendations on a construction lawyer would be helpful 3 2645 Thanks for the insights, that makes perfect sense, and yeah, I will be leaning on the experience of the excavator operator entirely. 6 16150 |
