"criminal mischief during the nighttime" - so you're saying if they rip up my lawn at night I can get my gun...

Seriously, thanks for the info. Not that I would ever pull a gun on someone like this, but I appreciate the reasoned response

So I'm not trying to be a troll, but this is Texas, and the castle doctrine is strong. What happens if you get your gun and tell someone to stop ripping up your lawn?

Use the water hose on full blast. Works for dogs, cats, squirrels and belligerent confused workers.

He text me last night, after I posted the pics and videos to social media.
He assured me they will be out here today to fix everything and that I will be compensated for the trouble. He apologized profusely and said when he returns to town he will be over to apologize in person.
As long as he follows through, I'm perfectly happy with all of this.

Once the worker realized he was at the wrong house, it didn't take him long to leave my property...I didn't have to brandish any weapons.

If you really want your driveway widened you could get it at a discount of however much it would cost to fix your yard.

I'd hire a sprinkler repair person and send them the bill. If you do not have a check in a month, then small claims court.

I'm personally not willing to let my yard die while i'm waiting on a deadbeat business owner.
