No, unless the owner of the property gives you specific permission to enter their land, it is deemed as trespassing.

If your fence falls onto neighbors property can you enter his property to repair it?

Yes, if you were negligent in the maintenance of the fence. Otherwise, the neighbor's company will pick up the tab. If it is a shared fence both companies will share equally in the cost to repair or replacement of the fence with a reduction of the deductible by 50% for each owner.


Can you put up a fence with permission then land sold and i want to move it can i?

If you "put up" the fence, one might presume that you purchased the materials and provided the labor, making it "your" fence, even though it may be located on land owned by someone else. Under this theory you did not "give" them the fence; rather they "permitted" you to occupy part of their property with your fence. The fence did not get sold with the property, as it was not theirs to sell. You may reclaim your fence by asking permission to enter the property and remove your personal property; the fence. If the new owners do not permit you access, you can obtain permission from the court to enter the property to remove your fence, or obtain an order for the landowner to remove you fence and return it to you at your cost. It would help to have an affidavit from the previous owner that states it is your fence. If the previous owner disagrees, or the new owner claims the fence is now his, then you can sue the previous owner and new owner, jointly and severally, for the value of your fence that they have "converted" to their own personal use, or sue in replevin to obtain the return of your property. This will be a fine welcome to the neighborhood for the new owners!

Can a neighbor refuse to allow their existing fence to be joined by a new one on the adjacent property?

Yes, they can refuse. The fence is their property, so you must have permission to join their fence to yours. If not, you can build to the edge of your property line, leaving a gap between the two. You can have your property surveyed to determine your exact property line, and if their fence is on the line you can connect at those points only. You can also make them remove the fence if it's on your property.


If you put up a fence on your property does the neighbor on the other side of the fence have the right to paint attach to or alter your fence?

Find your exact property line..... then come on your side of it just a few inches and then the entire fence is on your property as opposed to building right on the property line where it would be on both properties.
