OP sounds like he'd be better in the woods than the neighborhood.....

Why he had to cut it down in the first place may just be that he's one of those people who can't stand to have trees without a specific purpose around. It's sufficiently common that he may not really have a reason per se - just that everything is neater, nothing to block the view, "gee I don't know, I just like everything cleaned up".All good advice given but there are a couple of things that have not been mentioned. (1) If the canopy of the tree on HIS side of the property line should fail and fall and damage anything on HIS side of the property line, you would be held responsible for that damage. (2) Why did he have it cut down in the first place? There has to be a reason.
Life is short. Good neighbors can sometimes be hard to find. Have a beer
and get on with life. JMHO
Some people just can't stand to have anything growing that isn't being controlled. My FIL cut all the lower limbs off one of the two lindens my late husband planted for me... looked awful, limbs are growing back, but will never be the same. I have no clue why, other than that it didn't look "controlled". This whole area seems to prize everything in order, neat lines, geometrically arranged, larger to smaller, etc. Anything not strongly under human control has to go, or be pruned up perfectly symmetrically.
I got seven neighbors thrilled to death I've cut trees on their property, I did ask first.
The funny thing is two are mad at EACH OTHER about some trees that got cut on the lot line between them.

It is never a favor to cut a tree down on a neighbor's property without permission.
I just do ground level pruning. It is simple and straight to the point
This sounds like a made up story. A crepe myrtle is not a tree. As for a warranty on a tree.. I never heard of that either.
I have no idea what a crepe myrtle is but a warranty on a tree is a very real thing here. A good quality nursery/landscaper will definitely warranty their product and work. I have seen them replace high end trees before that failed. Think about this how happy would you be if you spent $5000 on 3 trees planted and one died within a season.
What do you mean its a bush? There are Crepe Myrtle trees maybe bushes too.
Who said it was a bush?
I asked if he thought it was a bush cause he didn't think its a tree there are two types and smaller ones that are bushes. Get it now?
No, what you did was quote a person without reading what they actually said. Read exactly what the poster said in #29 and what you said in #31. Now I ask again WHO said it was a bush?
Get lost man! Dont you worry about what I do and stop harrassing people for no good reason you petty little man.
Spoken like a true gentleman and a scholar
Good we done now?
Thank you the information. I was unaware of such a thing, but I do live in rural Alabama where a lot of people do not have $5000 to spent on anything.
Done with what, sir King
I understand not having $500 let alone $5000 but you must remember everyone is a bit different. Personally I would not spend that but others do
