re: Neighbor Delimma want some opinions

That would be a no from me dog

Sounds like you've already decided to let him do this.

He ended up catching an attitude when I went over to talk with him about it this morning so my answer went from "Sorry man I'm really not comfortable with the trucks going over my yard" to "frick no and go frick yourself". He was getting ridiculous, swatted at the ground with his shovel to show me how hard it was and was acting like I'm some a-hole for making him come up with another plan. Honestly made my decision easier as the only reason I was on the fence was because I did like the guy, but if hes gonna act like this over getting told no for a favor my opinion of him has changed.

Very much enjoyed the responses here though they were vindicating.

Well, good fences make for good neighbors.

I see a new fence in your future.

Yeah frick him, it’s not your project, figure out a way to do it yourself or don’t do it, this isn’t hard.

These people are also the ones that would immediately tell you to get fricked if you asked to burrow a rake or something as well

Last summer/fall our neighbor built a pool. He's on 1 street and we're 1 street over on the cul-de-sac. He has a long, tight and twisty driveway. He asked it the could take a section of fence down and run a hose to shoot the final layer of concrete on to the pool. Having tried to maneuver trucks and trailers around in spaces like that, of course we said yes.

But the difference is, the concrete trucks never came on our property. They just ran the hose over to the pool. They were done in a couple of hours, and it was seamless for all involved. Had they asked to do what yours asked to, I would have said no as well.

We are in this process now. I asked my neighbor if they could go on his property with the smaller excavator. I told him I would put plywood down as to not crush his drain line and repair any damages. He is an older man and told me we could also pump our water into the drain in his yard. He has been very good during this.

Tell him no and scream "You kids stay off my lawn"

I suggest that you park your vehicles in such a way that he cannot engage in a little self help and have the truck drive over your yard even though you told him no.

If the contractor is saying they will fix your yard then they can also fix his driveway if they crack it.
