Re: Fence& garden damaged: new strata next door builders.

Thanks again Jimmy T

Wrote to Building Company MD who responded by way of two line para, (?letter), letting me know that fence will be replaced once building completed.  As well, any damage to trees lining fence, (our side of fence), will be replaced or whatever.

*****However, have now found NEW dilemma.  Due to the prolonged construction, cement dust, road-base dust etc. ALL shrubs have been found to be ‘dirty’ with dust, leaving them vulnerable to disease, pests and, they’ve succumbed!!  No matter what has been tried the $’s x 10000’s of trees & shrubs have been adversely affected. ****

I believe that the cost of treatment of above, as advised by horticulturist, should be borne by Building Company.  (Not to mention my time & effort spraying,picking off mealy bugs-one by one, gathering & destroying diseased foliage,  blah, blah, blah…crawling around the garden when, as an aged person, should be enjoying myself……e.g bingo!!!.(just kidding).  However, not kidding about watching my 2+ years of good gardening practice go down the drain is disheartening.

Finally, am I correct in assuming that I should forward SM  receipts for purchases to fight the good fight which will then be forwarded to Company involved?

Cheers
