I think you are entitled to cut them back to the boundary .  Also I think you are obliged to offer him back the arisings but he is not obliged to accept  them . You can't just chuck them back over as that would be fly tipping .

1st ask him to cut them back, then as Stubby says

Cutting back trees without having permission to access them normally has a poor outcome in my experience.

It's never stopped you, though.

So let me get this right they are his trees growing right over my shed and he doesn’t have to do anything about it ,that doesn’t seem right so if I have to cut them back can I give him a bill for the work

Thanks Mark

No, you can't.

[Mark Bolam]

Yes you can.

But he won’t pay it.
