What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? KY
I have a neighbor that ran a down spout drain line from his house, along a fence and the water drained onto my property. I own about 40 large arbor vitaes along my property line that are planted 10 feet from the edge of my property. My neighbor has some very large trees that are extremely dense and have never been trimmed.
His very large trees blocked the sun on about 4 of my arbor vitaes killing them on the shaded side.
As a result of his water drainage and his trees killing one half of my arbor vitaes, the arbor vitaes are now leaning about 45 degrees as one side of the root ball has pulled out of the ground. I have asked him to do the right thing (replace my trees), but he thinks it is my problem.
This is the same guy who borrowed a 32 foot ladder, dropped it and bent it. He denies doing this, but he is the only one besides me that used it. He also put a gas line through part of my yard.
Any advice on the half dead arbor vitaes?
