Description

City/Road construction workers came, removed our platform side fence-supports by leaving a large gap, until then our fence was in:
• good condition,
• neat with out any tire marks or scratches or splashes,
• well supported with gravel mixed concreate along the fence line and
• compacted with topped tar layer with gravel mixture, along the fence line on the platform side , so that area:
○ will not erode,
○ will avoid any rat holes and
○ to avoid any plant growths
○ to avoid tripping while walking etc.,

Now our fence is left in:
• poor condition, not secured to previous height at its ground level
• various damages along the roadside fence
• splashed spots with concreate/cement
• multiple stains, unable to clean by scrubbing and/or by power wash etc.,
• with less support, uneven soil spread below the previous level and look unfinished properly
• gap between the platform and the fence, which was more and deep
• filled the gap with extremely loose sand which is/can erode/washaway extremely easily and will cause constant maintenance issues including plant growth, rat holes, dog digs/trash, water stagnant etc.,
• when a heavy rain happens, there is also the danger of those soil washing out and making our fence ever less stable
• inner side gravel filling were drained out, gapped-out and the fence seem to move/shake on heavy wind

Kindly address these by at least:
• removing the deep filled loose sand,
• lay up with the proper concrete filling on those deep gap right from the fence to the earlier height at least with needed tampering, without leaving any gap what-so-ever near the fence (along the platform side), as it was before(as in the picture) please.

Thanks for understanding and help with this matter asap.
