What will happen if my neighbor takes me to court for removing her bushes that she planted in my property few years ago?
Asked in Burlingame, CA | April 15, 2026My neighbor planted a few bushes, landscaping grave, and a short wooden boundary in my property, and refuses to remove them after I asked her verbally a few times. So, I sent a certified letter requesting that they remove those materials from my property so I can asphalt my driveway, including the area they encroached on. I also enclosed a copy of the San Mateo County Parcel Map satellite image showing their encroachment and gave them a June 1 deadline to remove those bushes and materials. But they are refusing to do so, saying there is a wooden barrier that shows the boundary (they put it there themselves in 2021), that they do not accept what the parcel map shows, and that they want me to do a professional boundary survey.
I am 100% sure I am right, can prove it, and have pictures from before 2021 that show there was no landscaping there. I also believe the county parcel map is correct, and I do not want to pay for a professional survey or wait any longer. So my question is, can I remove those bushes and landscaping gravel after the deadline myself, and asphalt the area, and if I do, what is the worst that can happen?
