Bid a job for a guy, a removal in front on his property, trimming on side--borders one neighbor and trimming in back--is neighbor's tree but branches hang 20' over his side of line and over garage roof, fence, etc.
He calls today,
removal in front no problem-it is his.
trimming on side-neighbor has no problem with him having the trees trimmed
neighbor in back-does not want tree touched.
Our client basically wants us to deal with the guy an he will give us the job, I said no can do-it is up to you to take care of it, I don;t do neighbor disputes.
He asked if we will just cut it like we talked about since it his side if the line...I think we can do that, but how do I know for sure? the client is the one paying to have it done not the neighbor who owns the tree.
I don't want to get sued for cutting a tree, then the client gets it done for free and I get screwed.
He asked about us doing a risk assessment so he has something showing the tree is hazardous and if the neighbor refuses to allow it to be trimmed and something happens he can go after him in court because he(neighbor) was negligent.
The problem with the risk assessment is I can't do an aerial assessment cause the neighbor won't let me in the tree.
WWYD??
