My husband owns a flat that we let out. There was a garden wall at the front of it but this fell down suddenly about 18 months ago. Since then the freeholder (who is very difficult) has refused to replace it saying that it is too expensive but also refusing to allow us to pay for a new one or put up a fence.
About a month ago the freeholder, whom we are in dispute with over various other issues, did put up a "fence" - one of those that you sometimes find in parks, it is made of untreated wooden sticks about 4ft high spaced out with wire. It looks awful. Is there anything we can do to have it replaced? Is there an obligation to replace like with like? It looks as if it is temporary but, given f/h's attitude, I doubt whether it is. We want to sell once we sort out all the legal issues, this would seriously put people off.
