My husband (29M) and I (28F) have lived in our home for over six years now. Our house is over 100 years old and we’ve slowly been making improvements when we can. When we got married my father-in-law gifted us landscaping for our front yard. We planned out what we wanted, talked to a landscaper, and he wanted to pay for it as a wedding present. The landscaping was completed over three years ago and we were very pleased and appreciative for such a great gift. The landscaping included a much needed retaining wall where there was a low patch in our front yard that previously turned into a mud pit when it rained. Fast forward to last year and our neighbors sold their house to a new owner. Almost immediately after she moved in she made it clear that she was going to be unpleasant to live next to. In the first week or so living there she came into our backyard and chopped the top off of one of our juniper bushes and threw it into our yard. The bushes were next to her garage, but clearly in our yard. It’s an old neighborhood and a lot of the garages were built long after the homes so everything behind the houses is very close together. Her garage is very close to the property line and maybe even a little bit on our property. We would’ve understood if she didn’t like the bushes. They were looking scraggly and landscaping for our backyard was next on our list for improvements. However, she gave no explanation and she hadn’t even introduced herself to us. I knew she did it because I could see her from my dining room window. We ended up clearing all three of the bushes out by her garage because they were unattractive (especially after having the top lopped off of one). About a week later she ran over our retaining wall with her lifted truck. It damaged the wall, but her truck is so tall it did no damage to her vehicle. Again, she never talked to us about it or apologized but I had seen her do it because I’m home all day. That summer we had the same landscaping company do work on our backyard so we asked them to add on a repair for the front yard retaining wall. The repair cost $100 and we paid it because we didn’t want a confrontation with our neighbor. One week after the wall was repaired she hit it again. Still we had no apology from her. We’re outside a lot, so we thought eventually she would approach us about it so we gave her time. She never did. One day I saw her walking her dog and came outside to discuss it. I just opened by saying that I wanted to talk about our retaining wall and she responded back by saying that she didn’t know how the wall was damaged. When I said I’d seen her run over it with her truck many times she started making excuses. She said the wall is too close to her driveway and that it could’ve been a delivery driver or any random person who used her driveway. I stayed firm. Initially, I was just going to ask her to pay for the next repair, but I decided that since she didn’t even apologize, I would ask her to reimburse us for the initial repair as well as the upcoming repair. She agreed, but said it wasn’t a big deal and she couldn’t make any promises she wouldn’t just hit it again. The wall was repaired again yesterday and this is the part that my husband says I would be the AH for. I put an ornamental iron post at the edge of our wall, but completely on our side of the property. That way it would be easier to see where the wall is, but if she hit the wall again she would also hit the post and it would probably damage her truck. My husband told me to take the post down. He said I was being vindictive and immature. I took it down immediately after I put it up, but I really want to prevent further damage to our property. I don’t want her to hit the wall again, but if she did hit it and our wall wasn’t the only thing being damaged I think she’d be less likely to do it again. So, would I be the AH if I put the post back? submitted by /u/SmellyChiChicken to r/AITAH [link] [comments]

There are new cracks below and around the window, both inside and outside. Can this be patched and fixed? How would you recommend this be fixed? And how urgently does this need to be fixed? Any long term concern? submitted by /u/SHIVERRRING to r/masonry [link] [comments]

My 1 year is up since purchasing a newly built home. HOA is pestering to get it finished. Don't really care about backyards but just need it done at minimal cost. Just something basic that somewhat looks decent. Estimate wise, how much would it be roughly? submitted by /u/Trigun442 to r/vegaslocals [link] [comments]

I’ve been researching low-maintenance landscaping options for hot and dry climates, and I’m curious to hear from people who have experience with long-term outdoor projects. From what I’ve seen, many homeowners focus only on how a yard looks at installation time and don’t think enough about drainage, heat retention, or how materials age over time. Things like poor base prep, ignoring foot-traffic patterns, or choosing surfaces that don’t handle extreme temperatures seem to cause issues later. For those of you who work in landscaping or have redesigned your backyard: What planning mistakes do you see most often? Are there materials or layout choices you wish you had avoided? What actually makes a landscape “low maintenance” in real life? I’d love to learn from real experiences before finalizing any design decisions. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/Anxious_Passion5382 to r/landscaping [link] [comments]

I am not The OOP, OOP is u/myPjams WIBTA for Embarrasing the neighbors for treaapassing in our backyard Originally posted to r/AmItheAsshole TRIGGER WARNING: Entitlement, harassment Original Post May 6, 2020 Our family moved into our home about two years ago. We moved in and our adjacent neighbor has been a nightmare.they are a forty something couple, who have a five year old son with developmental disabilities. When we first moved in we wanted a privacy fence for our dogs, our realtor, our sellers realtor, and our seller said it wouldn't be an issue, The neighbor fought the HOA about it for three months, and due to the situation and needing a fence we made huge concessions (and installed 4ft fence) It started with them calling the cops one morning when my husband got home from work on a Sunday morning sat on our backyard deck after a night shift and drank a beer and hung out with our daughter. They said he was endangering our daughter. Thankfully the cop understood wanting a beer after a night shift and just popped in and popped out. We had a little Fischer Price playhouse last summer for her to play in, and they reported it to the HOA. we hung a baby swing off a tree branch, same thing. Call from the HOA The mom particularly will park her mini van in front of our drive way so husband can't pull in or out of the garage, and wigs out when my husband comes and knocks on her door at 530 am to move it. Suffice to say we have learned our lesson and when we decided to install a playset we jumped thru the hoops Last month we had a landscaper install it. It's essentially a playground in our backyard. We both work essential jobs and no one is home during the day. My husband switched to nights and has watched The past two weeks her or her husband have been letting themselves into our backyard to let their son play for an hour or two, twice a day. first thru the gate, which we then locked, now they jump the Fence and bring a step ladder to get back over. They always wait for me to leave for work, I'm not sure they see my husband pull in at 6ish am. We bought a security camera, that records. Am I the asshole if my plan is to record them playing in my backyard and putting it on the neighborhood nextdoor and Facebook page, (she's active in both and complains about us, including a post about our playground landscaping being insensitive) my other option is to call the cops but I don't want to frighten their son VERDICT: NOT THE ASSHOLE RELEVANT COMMENTS [deleted] NTA, but keep it to proper channels. Call the cops for trespassing. Contact the HOA. Every time you notice them parked blocking your driveway, call and have it towed immediately. All your neighbors seem to know about them anyway. Word will get out. And how is calling the cops scary for the son? They already called the cops on you for legal activity on your own property. Also, are scrubs/trees legal in lieu of fence for privacy? Perhaps with thorns? Can you add a privacy screen or trellis to your porch/deck? Good luck! OOP Their son is fairly developmentally disabled. Just from how his mom in particular behaves (last time she called the cops on us for using our backyard to have a beer and mimosa on a Sunday) honestly she is that person that wigged out at us, called the police on 911. the police came, saw we were sitting on our porch, apologized to us, and she went ballistic at the cop for not arresting our . And it started a chain event and the little boy just lost his mind on the police officer. Thankfully he is very visibly a disabled child I think we will contact the police to ask them to witness it and quietly address it this time. And let the officer know if it happens again we will press charges. If we want to plant anything we have to have hoa approval and the neighbor folks are just not amenable and the HOA isn't going to open the can of worms where they don't follow their own by laws. (trees, fence and landscaping to keep views of the area is very important, it specifically calls out plants over 18 inches high) Honestly had our neighbors not been giant turds about everything and pretty much treat us like we're single handedly ruining their neighborhood, or even asked us while our daughter was away with her grandparents while my husband and I were working 75-80 hours a week to use it, I think I would have said yeah not a big deal. Now i'm mad this lady posts about our 'bad behavior" every week on social media and talks shit about us and now actually does something that's actually illegal and I can't shout it from the rooftops that she's a hypocrite ~ Sassyza NTA....but be The bigger person and go to your HOA first and let them know that The next step is to call the cops. You don't want them threatening to sue you if you put the video on social media. I understand they would probably lose if the did sue but you lose too if you had to hire legal counsel. Good luck with these ass holes Edits: First of all, OP please let us know what happens. I see in comments to my posts there are some stating you have every right to post the trespassing video on social media. Since none of us know where you are located, I don't think it is good advice. Know what your rights are as well as the trespassers rights before you follow that type of advice. As one posters suggested, have their car towed next time it is blocking your driveway. cr2810 I agree. Take this to the HOA and tell them they need to approve your 6 ft fence now. And I would also go to the cops. You need to have the neighbors given an official trespassing notice. OOP How the HOA bylaws work all adjacent properties have to agree with the fence. They were the only neighbors that refused to and we had to compromise and install the only fence that is auto approved. & But I plan on parking my car a block away this afternoon and calling the police that we have tresspassers OOP responding to a downvoted commenter who thinks be the bigger person and a better neighbor Honest to God. Both of their sons are great. Before she started posting on the neighborhood Facebook, I've paid the teenage son to sit for our daughter before. And I honestly wouldn't care if they asked if they could use it. R (Our daughter is with grandparents until husband is no longer taking care of cov + patients, so we don't use it, and I've literally watched them run cleaning supplies on the touch surfaces after use. ) Right now is a difficult time and we can be good members of our community, and it this can make his life better, and in turn their lives a little easier Than let's do it. But it takes a lot of cajones to bitch about us on the internet (almost weekly) and bitch about my backyard and then feel free to use it. Update 1 Same Day/5 hours later Update 1:. I spoke to two attorneys. Specifically I used Google and searched for previous cases involving my HOA where the attorney represented the home owner. A. This particular hoa is really not afraid to spend money on lawsuits. He thought if we wanted a higher fence and installed without permission or landscaped any further we would be fined if someone complained. B. The HOA can't do anything about her behavior, and for a few hundred dollars she will draft a letter making it clear we find this ladies posts on their FB to be harassing. C. To call the non emergency police and leave a message. D. As far as she's concerned we have the appropriate insurance for our attractive nuisance. E. Because they are using a ladder to use our attractive nuisance the get over the fence. And an adult always accompanying him, that the particular laws in our state make it very clear if it's no easily accessible it's not an attractive nuisance and it only covers children F. There's nothing illegal about posting it on Facebook/Nextdoor. Update 2 Same Day 13 hours later Update two: I spoke with the non emergency police line and the community assigned police officer called me about ten minutes later. The community police officer (he was very nice looks like he's been winding down his career as a school police coo and a community cop) agreed if I called him today he would come and help me have the conversation and issue them a warning about tresspassing. I don't want them charged, I want to be the bigger person. Even if I want nothing more than to be extra petty and put her on blast with the neighbors. They showed up for the afternoon play around 2:30. The dogs and cameras let me know.i called the officer and he parked down the block and we both walked around the house, (he verified my gate is locked) to my very surprised neighbors. I said hey Rachel we need to talk, we can sit down and do it, I'm pissed you all are in my backyard without my permission but I feel like I can control my emotions. I told her we had noticed that they were at first letting themselves into my backyard, but now they were breaking into it. I said coming into my yard without my permission needed to end today. The officer point blank said he works 8-5 m-f and will respond immediately to any trespassing incidents after today. She got a little snippy and started talking back to the officer, but the officer escorted her and her son and her ladder off the property, and said he didn't want to hear it and that she's an adult and she can't go into a fence property even when it's unlocked. Rachel posted not even 15 minutes after this happened on the neighborhood Facebook with a picture of my backyard about how ridiculous it is that you can get a playground approved in a backyard. And how ugly it is and how it's devaluing everyone's property. And how it's dangerous and if anyone thinks it's impeding her view. Some agreement from her friends, and a few people reminding her we live in a very kid friendly neighborhood, and it looked nice and natural. I also posted in the neighborhood facebook with a picture from my office of my backyard with her and her son using a ladder to get over the fence Ingo my backyard, really good ISO landscaping suggestions on my fence line to keep neighbors out. I may be using our stimulus check on getting some supplies and making portable privacy screen/fence/trellis Garden boxes. Suffice to say her FB post is deleted and her husband Facebook messaged me asking me to delete mine. FINAL COMMENTS General_Moy Thank you for keeping us informed! Please continue to do so! OOP Fuck. If I thought I wouldn't get identified by posting the video here I would. They literally have an above ground swimming pool ladder they move and climb into my yard with. tanno55 Are you going to remove your post? What did her husband say about her using your backyard? OOP I took my post down. That guy has also been climbing our fence and using our backyard so it's not a just her problem. Its their bad behavior not just hers.

I (29F) recently bought a small house with a decent backyard. My dad (58M) runs a landscaping business and asked if he could “store some extra equipment” in my yard until he found a new rental space. I said okay, thinking it would be temporary. Two months later, my backyard looks like a construction site. He has three lawnmowers, piles of mulch, and random tools scattered everywhere. He even started sending his workers to pick stuff up from my place without telling me. I told him it’s stressing me out because I wanted a yard to relax in, not a storage yard. He said I’m “ungrateful” because he’s family and this is how “we help each other.” When I told him he has two weeks to move everything out, he accused me of disrespecting him and said I’m prioritizing “aesthetic over family.” My mom says I should let him keep it “a little longer” because business is hard right now. But it’s been months and it feels like I lost my yard.

My house was built on a landfill... While trying to plant a cherry tree in my yard I kept hitting hard things about 4 in below the surface. I was really hoping they'd be some large cool stones I could add to my landscaping, but nope. It was just bottles and bottles and bottles and tons more broken glass bottles. After all this digging through and separating pieces of broken glass from my lovely rich soil and keeping my 3-year-old away because he wanted to help pick up the glass, I had fill it back in because I dug too close to the house. I was only 15 ft away and needed to be 20 to 25 ft away. This was disappointing because I wanted it to line up with my fig tree and give it a little bit of shade in the summer because it's been struggling. This is not my first experience finding trash in my yard. When we first bought the place 5 years ago we cleared out a lot of garbage from the backyard but I did not expect so much underneath the soil. I dug two feet deep and was still finding whole glass bottles. My daughter, 12, likes to pretend to be a fox and was digging in the dirt with her hands next to her favorite tree on the opposite side of the yard and cut her hand really bad on broken glass. We collected over 200 tires from the neighboring vacant lot as well as our property and paid to get them recycled at a local tire distributor. Every time I try to dig up the Earth and plant a new garden location I find old Coors light beer cans and all sorts of other junk. But never this much and never in one concentrated location. There is another stretch of land on the opposite side of our yard that completely covered in big old oak trees and there is just old glass bottles everywhere. So my yoshina cherry tree is still not planted and I have two apple trees and two peach trees to get in the ground as well. So after all of that I will not be doing that today. It continuously becomes more and more evident that the previous homeowners that built our house were very trashy. Also we have grubs and wild hogs keep tearing up our yard to find them. submitted by /u/nirvana_llama72 to r/mildlyinfuriating [link] [comments]
