I want to put up a piece of lattice on one 8ft section of the fence shared with my neighbour on one side. The existing fence is 6' high and the lattice would extend about 1.5' above that. I would be attaching it to my side of the fence. It will be well done and look nice.

I'm putting it up there because I want more privacy. The people next door are really unfriendly and creepy, we catch the guy curiously peering over quite a bit so I thought this would help block him out, or at least get the point across. I know a bunch of people would suggest talking to him about it but I'd rather just put it up if I am within my rights. Does anyone know if I have to consult this guy before doing something like this, considering it's on my side of the fence?
