Thinking of putting up second fence
Hi
I just bought a new home in a new Development. I moved in 1 month before my neighbor on the right moved in. When I found out that the neighbors moving in owned a fencing company I decided to wait for their home to be finished building and for them to move in before putting up a fence. I thought once they moved in we can discuss and talk what kind and color fence to put between our homes. Once they moved in we talked for about 5 minutes about what kind of a fence and color. Now my house is Light gray brick in the front and white siding and his brown brick and brown siding. He decided on putting up a frost or wired fence. but he chose brown for it. For my house I think white would go perfectly. anyhow I mentioned to him why not black this way it will go with his home and mine since black would match his brown house too. Anyhow not 3 days later I left for work and he put up his brown fence anyways. I called my kids at home and told them to pass the phone to them and told them I would not pay them anything for the fence since the color was not what I wanted. He said fine don't worry about it. I was and still am ****ed. He put the fence right on the line of our land. My question is has anyone seen 2 fences side by side ? I am planning on putting up my own fence on every side of me now. No more Mr. nice guy anymore. People have said to me its his house he can do whatever he wants so therefore I am going do whatever I want too. SO question is has anyone seen 2 fences side by side and does it look stupid ? I was thinking of putting a wood fence 5 foot high with a mesh of a foot on top for a total of 6 feet. his fence is 5 foot tall. This way he will have his nice brown fence that matches his home and then see my wooden mesh of a foot above it. I am not at war with him. I smile and talk very polite with him. But wait till he sees what I'm goning to install and i'm going to do it when he is at work to. Anyhow I would like to hear your opinions on this situation. and if anybody else has been in this situation and what did they do. thanks very much joeway |
