Hi all,
I am an expat and would like some advice/ opinions on this issue.
We live in a semi detached after years of renting I finally bought this 2 years back. House is basic haven't done much work left it for now until we save up.
Our neighbour pretty much told us on day we moved they are extending. We have a wall we share. We don't mind as long as regulations are followed and after reading agreement we signed party wall. They got work started and one Monday morning 5 mins before I leave the door they told me they are removing the fence. I was unaware of this and had no understanding of why we they have a garage and side entrance. I asked him if he can put a temp barrier for health and safety. If no fence builders can see my dining and lounge as we have open plan. I have seen other neighbours have a barrier erected between adjoining houses when such work was ongoing. Eventually I am seeing builders coming to my side in and out without telling us exactly the plan and how many days this will be ongoing. I could see them stand on patio etc taking measurements. He hadn't even covered the patio with anything to protect it from damage. This morning I sent out a mail stating, put fence or a temp barrier for health and safety, let us know the timeline and what to expect in terms of builders moving around. They also left the old fence in my plants and open nails around. I have a 6 yr old and was worried. Neighbour came accused me of being unfriendly and has had a big show down. Aibu? All I did was email what I wanted and was taken by surprise someone could step onto my side of garden. We only know them for 2 years and generally been civil until today :(. Sorry for long post my husband works 8-8 and I have no one to speak to :(
