    Check your house plans? How was that pipe not found when the retaining wall was built?...surely the footings would have been deeper than that hole? either way do as other people have said change the root ball and leave well alone..lol

    New fence professionally installed just not right....help

    .Has this been sorted yet...sounds like a bodgit and leggit type. He should have used at least 9ft posts (assuming 6ft fence +1ft gravel board =2ft in the ground.)

    Neighbour fenced within the tree line- any legal consequences?

    It looks to me like he has put a fence up on his side of his land as it was too open without your fence being replaced. All you have to do is address the tree height or if indeed he wants them out and renew the original fence along your boundry. conifers are great in wide open spaces like fields...
