We are in PA, we cut down a dead tree the neighbor had wanted down. It snapped in two on the way down, taking out their powerline. The neighbor repaired the damaged line himself, told us to stay off his property, period, and also to call a building inspector to see the work so the power conpaby could turn the power on. It's the first day of a 3 day holiday weekend. The township insoectio. offices are closed until Tuesday. Since the elderly woman and son who live in the house don't have power, what do they have a right to bill us for, besides electrical repair & inspection? Hotel? Perishable food items? Personal stress? We need to know what money to try to put aside.
I assume they could take us to snall claims court?
Two years ago, a tree on our property fell on the same powerline. The power company got the electricity back on the same day. The neighbors never forgave us for the first time. They are a couple acres away from us with woods in between. They don't speak to us.
