Tree Trimming Beyond Property Line California

Question:

My neighbors tree branches are extending over the fence that separates the properties.
My neighbor told me I could trim them back to the fence line.
I understand that it is my responsibility to pay for the trimming. Is this correct?

Answer:

Hi Jose,
Yes. In California, the person who decides to trim the tree extending beyond the property line should typically cover the cost of the trimming. If you live in a homeowners association, your HOA may have certain restrictions and rules about trees in the community. If a neighbor is in violation of these rules, you may let your HOA know and ask for assistance.
