Hi all,
A friend of mine is having trouble with a property he owns and lives in which is a terraced property next door to a housing association owned and managed property.
I was helping him clear an overhanging buddleia to his garden the other day and we noticed cracks in the boundary wall, which is made of stone cob.
It appears as though the buddleia is growing in the actual wall itself. I thought it was best we should stop and that he should phone the housing association who own the property to clear the vegetation in the garden and make good the damage to the wall and stop it getting any worse.
Question is : what will happen if the housing association don't act ? What are his rights ? He's an older fella and does not use the internet so I said I would gather what information I can.
Thanks for any info.
