I own a summer home in Long Island, NY. Last year, when i came out after the winter, my new neighbor had dug a trench across my blacktop driveway to put his electric wires underground without asking my permission. He had my phone number because he called me twice offering to buy my house, but never called about this. He is a contractor and was totally renovating the house. When I finally met him in Sept., he said he would have his men take care of it. Now when I came back this spring, the driveway was not fixed and he has sold the house.
What do i do?
Do you have any kind of proof? Do you have anything in writing saying he would take care of it? Do you have his name and new address and/or phone number? I don't know why you didn't follow up on this but I bet you're SOOL
But don't just cut them. Cut them and pull them all the way back and repair your driveway.
Disclaimer: although I do condone righteous retribution, playing with electricity is very dangerous and should only be handled by professionals and those with experience.
OMG Never cut wires! OP don't do anything till you call the utility company and see what those wires are! I don't want to read about some poor person following advice on CD and getting electrocuted!
we cut outdoor electrical wires accidentally once in the flower bed. Thought they were roots. Old owner apparently had it for the fountain or whatever. It put a moon-shaped hole in the aluminum gardening shears, not to mention scaring my wife half to death.
Can you go after the utility company that came on your property without permission and ran the wires???
