Neighbours cuprinol fence sprayer vs my house

Xeorix

Another reason to hate these rubbish spray devices. I've seen far too many cars covered in paint because some muppet tries to paint their fence/shed on a windy day.

Try letting it dry out, and get a sharp blade on it. We're doing our kitchen at the moment, and a bit of gloss a flicked onto the new tiles. A sharp blade gets them off no problem though.

I would be very wary of letting a pressure washer anywhere near your bricks and mortar op no matter how careful you are, and as for fair , is it fair that you now have this problem , which you didnt have before this clown turned up to do the fence spraying ?

To be honest this is a little bit how I feel. I didn't have this problem before. I know I've had lots of useful suggestions and I'm grateful for them. I dont really want to take a knife to my bricks and mortar - and the pressure washer will be good to try on the paving slabs, but again nervous about doing it to my bricks. I dont want to cause any damage to my own property which will impact my home insurance. Are there professional companies that could help? I've looked on google, but it mainly seems to be stone doctors etc. I spoke with Cuprinol who suggested detergent but said if it'd dried in it would probably need specialist removal. They seemed to suggest that overspray is very common.:mad:

If you are searching for a specialist cleaning company - try searching for graffiti removal services.
Hope that this helps & good luck.

I hadn't thought of that- but of course it's paint and spray paint at that! :beer:Hope they don't charge me a fortune .

Imagine the state of their toilet after a night out!

@Dan you are bad. Would it be completely reasonable if I presented my neighbour with the bill. He is elderly, and only just moved in so I don't know if money is tight for him

You could probably just broach the subject of having the work done and payment towards would be much appreciated , rather than just rocking up with an invoice or quote and insisting on payment

Elderly doesnt always mean skint , does it?

Let the neighbour pay for a professional to do the work.

Quite!:T

My very first thought was "Why are you doing HIS work for him?" He created the mess = he clears it up.
