Hi All,
Looking for advice in regards to course of action to take with problem below.
- 15/12/2010 Notified by council sewerage going onto street via my sewer pipes, 24 hrs to rectify
- Plumber comes out runs eel, says its either 2 trees roots blocking the pipes one on my neighbours property, one on council.
- I send council some info, picture of the tree root etc.
- They send arborist who says that the tree on their land is in poor health and are going to remove it and that it's not their tree that is causing the problem.
- Council says now its basically private matter between myself and neighbor
- Tree on neighbors property is a big eucalypt
What i've done since then.
* Emailed insurance broker see if any recourse their, as someone else property damaging mine
* Emailed PM to inform neighbor and contact plumber see if another perminate solution rather then getting big *** tree removed.
* emailed council for a report from their arborist to confirm in his professional opinion that its the other tree and not theirs causing the problem.
Waiting to hear back from PM/broker/council
If anyone else had this problem, would like to hear what u did
Regards,
RH
