We have some rot at the base of our verandah posts.
Bought some steel stirrups to replace the lower 130mm of them.
As I prised the first post off the nails and slid it from under the fascia, there was a loud creaking followed by splintering wood sounds.
Bewildered, I'm looking left and right to see what was collapsing. :worried:
Then there was a huge crashing as a large bough from one of next door's trees fell into their garden. :doh: :lol:

I bet you didn't even realise your verandah was holding their tree up in the first place! :lol: :lol:

No worries mate - send your neighbor a bill for tree "service."

Hang on a minute - I thought your neighbour was 200 miles away, in the Outback ?
