Hi, I have a problem with my neighbours leylandii hedge and am trying to find out if there is a law in france that will make him cut them.I have been told a few conflicting things by french friends and the marie.There are ten trees in total they are all two meters away from the border and ten meters away from my house they are about twelve meters high.I have spoken to him about it and he said he has no money to pay for them to be cut down the roots dug up and the hedge to be replaced.He does have money to pay a gardener and a window cleaner runs two cars and lives in a large house(on his fathers land).He also said to me he has no objection for me to cut them.The sun drops behind them very early in the day which causes a shdow over my whole house, in winter it traps in humidity between the house and hedge and is turning a decked area between them green. I don,t really know what to do about it i don,t have enough experience to cut them myself and have had a devis off a tree surgeon for one hundred and fifty euros per tree,i don,t want to pay that sort of money but i do want them gone before this summer.If anyone can help i'd be grateful.Thanks
