Hi, hoping to hear some advice on what we should do regarding some guttering works builders have carried out on an adjoining property which has affected ours.
We live in a 2nd to end terrace and our neighbour (end terrace) has had the guttering replaced. Our rainwater on the front and back drains to downpipes on the end property. Our guttering (and rest of the terrace) is standard half round, which matched her old guttering. For some reason, the builders have replaced it with deepflow and haven't been able to connect properly. I have looked and can't find an adaptor that would do such a job, wondering if anyone can advise if this is possible?
Solution so far has been to lay my guttering inside deepflow guttering and fill the gap with a job lot of sealant. Both connections have been conveniently positioned so if a leak was to occur, they are adjacent to my property. At the front, builder has also drilled through my guttering and used screws to make a firmer connection! Therefore, my gutter will be useless even if a solution to the connection adaptor can be found.
Builder and neighbour do not believe there to be a problem with the end result.
Any advice as to what to do next to resolve this would be appreciated.
Many thanks
