I have acknowledged the work that has been done to rectify my garden, but also expressed my slight dissatisfaction in that there is a significant gap down the side of the brick wall that needs cementing and a plank needs adding of the bottom of the fence.
They have reacted with hurt shock and suprise saying they are confused as wasn't this what I wanted?
I have replied yes but it needs to be finished properly and at the very least I require their garden to be obscured more. I have reminded them of the tree that provided that obscurity and how accomodating I was to allow it to be removed. I have reminded them that the issue for me has been the gratuitous disrespect of my privacy and I need them to now respect that and make it right.
They have said 'Well we dont plan to be in the garden much '
Ive said that really isn't the point and why are you arguing the toss with me when you could be sorting these small things out?
They have then gone on about how it has all been the toxic builders fault and now they have gone and they are concerned that they have fractured their relationship with me
I have said I'm glad they have gone yes they were toxic and I warned you of that back in March. However ultimately it is your fault due to your poor communication skills and then not listening to me regarding the party wall notice and proceeding illegally. Not listening to me regarding the scaffolding. Not having my back in anyway and just the fact that you have not taken responsibility for managing the whole thing really badly. This has indicated heavily to me that you are people without moral fibre or decency and there is no relationship and will be no relationship.
They also made a comment about sorting their garden out and the fence at which I replied I'm going to need a party wall notice before you touch that fence.
I don't think I'll be hearing from them again and I expect I'll have to sort out the crack and the plank myself.
The only apology I have had has been 'I'm sorry you have had to deal with the toxic builders ' 'I'm sorry you feel you were not listened to'
They have taken the least responsibility to keep me on side and it has not worked. They do not seem to get that what has been partfully rectified is the least the could have done and that I've had to fight for it every step of the way.
Now to live next to them
Maybe some potted climbers for that wall too, is that an old crown chimney pot in the back, quite fancy that...
