If you have an issue with a neighbours' hedge, you can contact us to investigate the matter. We can investigate hedges that are:
- over 2 metres in height
- forming a line of at least 2 trees or shrubs
- obstructing light
You should always try to resolve issues regarding neighbours high hedges yourself directly with the hedge owner. If this is not successful or you have exhausted all other avenues you may make a formal complaint to us, using this form, under the provisions of Part 8 of the Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003. It should be completed by the person making the complaint or by their representative.
The current fee for a high hedge complaint is £450.
