Evening all.
I am really cheesed off tonight.
I was really happy that my wall was replaced with a new one so when the fence started to go up earlier i thought great.
Off i went to work and i came home to yes a nice new higher fence, nice and sturdy, walked round on to my garden and saw what the side was like where the fence is.
I could of cried, i really love my garden and have spent a lot of time and money putting in nice plants and conditioning and seeding my lawn after the damage the scaffolding caused.
Below is a before pic and then whats there now :

SEE NICE SLIM BORDERS DOWN THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AND FLOWERS DOWN THE SIDE WHICH WERE IN FULL BLOOM THIS MORNING.
LOOKS OKAY SO FAR.
HANG ON WHATS THAT PILE OF SOIL AND CLAY I CAN SEE?
THIS IS WHAT I SEE NOW, MY GRASS AND PLANTS ARE UNDER THERE SOMEWHERE, YOU CAN SEE ONE TRYING TO ESCAPE.
AND EVEN MORE, IN FRONT OF THE GRASS LIKE PLANT WAS A MASS OF TALL LEAVES WITH YELLOW FLOWERS, YOU AN JUST SEE ONE BENT OVER AND THE OTHER PEEKING OUT THE PILE.
AND UNDER THAT PILE IS MY PALE PINK PEONY.
I am not a happy person tonight.
I am going to have some tea now and then try and sit in my corner and create something to take my mind off the mess outside.
Hugs Nic.xx

Oh, Nic, that is so unfair and most definitely not on. You need to complain, sweetie - they can't do that. The good thing is that you have the photos to prove the damage they've done to your garden. Thinking of you. Hugs, Tracey x
Think I would be complaining and asking for compensation, hope the crafting takes your mind off it x
Oh Dear Nic, I do wish workmen would consider the poor plants,it would appear not one of them is a gardener.
I hope you can save some of them.
Hugs

Oh Nic I'm so sorry that they've caused so much damage, how stupid of them I hope that the plants recover quickly.

Oh dear, Coops, I know just how you feel - I'll swear that most builders do not garden! I do hope your peony will come through again ... when it thinks it is safe to come out from under that pile of soil. And hopefully the plant making a bid for freedom will succeed too. In the meantime, the craft room is a good idea - there's nothing more therapeutic. Hugs, Elizabeth xx
Oh!Coops, dont some people just break your heart.how awful..I had painters in awhile ago and the workers through a huge tarp right my Dalihas and smashed them to bits..then sprayed paint right across the fence where my climbing roses were..killed them..
Luv CHRISSYxx
Oh Nic hun - how awful - I hope you complain - bloody thoughtless what they have done!! Wish I could come and help you out (((hugs))) Michelle xx
Oh no! That is so inconsiderate and thoughtless. No wonder you are upset. I hope you will be able to find a way to get some sort of compensation for the damage caused to your plants.
Take care, sending you hugs

Oh Nic, I feel your pain, as a garden lover too, I would have been gutted, what an earth were they thinking! No respect for other people's property - I would have to complain. Sending huge hugs. Claire xx
Oh Nic, so sorry to see what has happened to your beautiful garden, you must be very upset and angry...I know I would be.

Awww Coops - how sad that no one cared enough to be careful where your plants are... don't despair hun, flowers and shrubs are actually hardier than we think - you may have lost your peony this year but I will bet it will come back again next... a little gentle raking and removal of the rubble and am sure all will be fine. xx
I like the now look, and I'm sure wants everything goes in it's proper place it will look amazing... Take a deep breath, sip your tea and think of the final beauty when it's all done...
Oh sweetie, how distressing, after all the time and care you spent on your garden! Can you get the b*****rds who did the damage to repair it? Though of course chasing them is extra hassle that you don't need at this time. Many *hugs*
love Mags B xxxx
Oh Nic, I can see why you are sad. This is just such carelessness by the workers. Sending you some hugs x
Oooh I so feel for you. I love my garden too and put a lot of hard work into it - it's soul destroying when this happens. But your plants will pick up again even though it might be next year now.... Luv Angie x
All the time and effort you have put in your garden. (MAD)how some people's brains work, what were they thinking and doing. They can be in so much trouble for doing that. They making more work for themselves, wall, fence and now looks like they be doing your garden and planting new plants for you..Hugs Lozzy xx
ACK ACK ACK, Hun I feel your pain, I would certainly be slinging the clay and mud back over the fence. Our neighbours are having an extension done, I have the builders fag butts in our garden, I have the dust all over my washing, How many times I have had to do the rewash I will never know grrrrrr, They havent put the fence back right, My gazebo is covered in their cement, NOT HAPPY, seems consideration is a thing of the past. xxx
Seems they had no concideration for your property Coops after all of your lovely hard work too! don't make youself ill over it .....it can be retified but at your cost again which is really annoying do take care l'm sending lots of hugs and kisses hopefully you will having it looking good again xx
Nic get your neighbours to sort it all out with new topsoil and plants, feel so sorry for you Hun, sending you hugs. Alison xx

lotsa love n huuuuuuuuuge hugz Angie xXx
Oh poor you Coops, you've had no luck with these builders at all have you :o( Sending big hugs honey xxx
Omg I would go ape!!!! People have no idea how long a nice garden takes and how much effort! I feel your pain- my fil decided to paint our back garden wall white (instead of pebble dash) whilst we were on our holiday and instead of moving my plants he managed to cover them in paint so they are all dead :(
Sending mahoosive hugs! Xx
Seriously!!!! What did they think they were doing, that's absolutely appalling, not surprised you were upset :(
This makes me so mad and sad! They should have to replace each plant they damaged and pay for your time and the work needed to restore it! Ugh! I feel for you so much!
