Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my neighbour cuts my hedge without permission?
Contact us immediately for a professional damage assessment. We'll document the situation, clarify your rights, and can facilitate discussions with your neighbour while providing evidence for any compensation claims if needed.
Can I cut my neighbour's overhanging branches?
You have limited rights to trim to the boundary line, but there are proper procedures to follow. We can advise on legal requirements and proper techniques, or facilitate discussions that lead to collaborative solutions.
My neighbour's trees are blocking light - can you help?
We assess light impact objectively and suggest practical tree management solutions that can improve conditions while preserving tree health. Our mediation services often help neighbours reach agreements on appropriate management. Our Light surveying software and technology coupled with our in depth arboricultural surveys can play a critical role in light disputes.

What if my neighbour refuses to discuss the problem?
