Soil erosion from neighbouring property

[Lk1980]

Hi,
I have a house next door and they got rid of all soil, grass etc... because it's too much for landlord to maintain. The property has been unoccupied and the lady who owns does not care.

Wondering what are my options.
Many thanks

Wondering what are my options.

What are the problems that you need options for?

What are the problems that you need options for?

Can I remove the soil and get the concrete / salad and cement mix to close the gap or can I get my neighbour to put it right as it is affecting the enjoyment of the property.

Those pictures mean absolutely nothing. If that is your side of that wall then just block it although I don't think salad will do much. If it's their side then they will have to sort it but again salad wont do it, lettuce leaves tend to rot away quite quickly.

I'm curious - what is supporting the bottom of the wall?

I presume they're gravel boards.

What a confusing thread.

They are gravel boards. The photograph is from my property. Opposite side all they have is gravel.

 

[Why Not Indeed]

What happens when it rains heavily? Does it all wash out? If it does then eventually they will get sick of their gravel disappearing in to your garden.

I would make a feature of it by growing something in it. Stabilise it with wire mesh and plant something suited to the moisture/light levels there [probably not lettuce though ]. The roots and the wire mesh will work together to stop the soil falling out.
