Should I be concerned? Neighbor issues.

(1/30) > >>

Vigo:
So, I know I have complained about my neighbors on here in the past, the ones that chopped down my fence on me years ago. Issues seem to always come up with them. I don't know if I should be concerned about this one or what, but their house is ridiculously close to my property. Just inches, butting right up to my driveways and shed, and only about 8 feet away from my house.

My wife called me today to tell me that a contractor came to our door and said they are spray painting our neighbors house today and need her to move our car so they can work from our driveway. They are spray painting oil paint on the exterior and there is no room on the neighbor property side to work from.

My wife hasn't done anything yet, but we are concerned on a number of levels. First, it is windy and the direction of the wind is directly towards our house. I am worried about overspray on our property. We have landscaping right on the property edge. Also, I am concerned about my motorcycle. It is very, very heavy, and my wife won't be able to move it. I don't want random people touching my motorcycle either.

Second, my wife is home with our infant son, and I am worried about the fumes from the oil paint. My wife asked if they could roll the paint on instead, but they haven't come back and agreed to that.

These neighbors screwed me over multiple times now, so I don't owe them any favors, but I hate to take it out on the contractor in the process. Any suggestions on what I should do?

Been thinking that for years.  :lol

Turvey:
I would have thought any decent contractor would erect scaffolding around the house and put up tarps around the scaffold to stop any excess paint blowing all over the place.
