Mum and I live in an end of terraced house where next door is an old extension and is leasehold (mum owns the land). It’s quite an unusual complex. Their bathroom is above our front door (don’t ask!!).
Anyway, they have decided to carry out building works which we appreciate need doing. They did tell us they were going to do this, but didn’t ask us, the freeholder, permission. We’ve just let it go and decided ‘they need to do repairs, so let them’. However, I only bought a new car 7 weeks ago in brilliant white. I held off weeks and weeks to buy one as I waited until their works were over, but they didn’t keep us informed about a start date, which they promised and failed to let us know. They have erected scaffolding about 1 metre from our car parked on our drive and is over our front door entrance. It’s like they’ve taken over the whole land and both properties. I asked them if I should move our car and he said he ‘didn’t think so’. Now, there is brown dust all over our new car and they have moved their own car onto the road. I told them our car is a mess and said I’d have willingly moved the car but reminded him he said I didn’t need to and told him quite brashly, “You’ve moved your car alright haven’t you from your drive”.
What I’d like to know is should I move the car onto the road (which I don’t want to really to as it’s new) or leave it where it is or what? Also he said yesterday the drilling would stop at 12 noon, but it went on after 4pm. We feel they’ve completely taken over.
(Hope I've posted this in the right category - I didn't know where to post it).
TIA.
