I think its me that should be claiming damages

The roof tiles change because at some point in the past it was bitumined n they have simply gone up to the ridge. The roofer who did it would not have had plans and would have simply gone as far to the obvious point - the ridge, I doubt it very much the neighbouring property has gone to the...

thats is the party wall..! and no its not a tiny triangle! this is the side view of the building. yellow line indicates the boundaries of it - agian, all I am asking is if someone knows - whats the legal boundary (in a roof leak senario) party wall or roof ridge? (see first pic for details)

Sorry to be so .... ignorant here.. but youre not helping me understand where is the legal line - all i need to understand is it - party wall or roof ridge?

That was my thinking exactly - so much water could not come through from the ridge. (no plumbing leak.. it was really heavy rain and it brought the ceilings down, also other properties were effected) I went in loft and saw daylight coming through from the breather hole in the party wall, so...

Hi everyone! I was hoping you could advise here as I have a problem with the neighboring property saying I am responsible for leak (waterfall) entering their property (wish I could post video as it shows the water coming in by the gallon) Is the legal definition of a party wall based on the...

Ive had another look at this and it might be possible to grind out this type of line.. not sure how neat it would be though.. do you think that this might be possible and would it work..? other problem here is where ive lined it in red I was going to concrete. Also, where would you drill holes?

Hi there... I did plan on the fall going that way.. it was a continuation of the fall of concrete already there and then I had to meet up with the original path at the side of the house which was higher so ended up with a high to low to high scenario and I don't think I had an option with...

Any ideas on what i can do to solve this problem.. anyone there..? please help!

Hi again.. finished concreting but look what ive got now.. the run off had to go that way to where its flooding.. is there an easy way to fix this? Again any advice very welcome

Sorry Andy...! not trying to offend anyone.. Its just I was getting too many conflicting ways of doing this and after asking several neighbors how they did theirs I couldnt see that anyone had used a grid.. regarding paving Im on a budget and thought that using stone would be my best option
