I think it a case of either you suffer or you don't.My previous next door neighbour was a heavy chain smoker and toward the last 10 years of his life,he was smoking 50 to 60 cigarette a day !!! He died in the house fire causes by falling asleep while smoking , he was 98 years of age !! and yet...

Most of the Victorian terraces around me still have open lofts. The pics show my neighbours loft and the large gaps through to the rest of the terrace: I have only recently had a firewall built. This was partly due to some new neighbours who like to smoke something stronger than normal...

Why thank you kind sir!!! Especially in areas where you've got neighbours in close proximity - I could just imagine a few angry people who've just had their clean laundry that's been hanging out to dry tainted by the smell of grass burning

Oh dear. You know exactly who I mean. I am specifically referring to people like my ex neighbour, fake disabled, free car, free house, free stay in prison for fraud, smokes, drinks, goes out lots. Doesn't work, but could work if it wasn't so easy for her not too.

You will find that the police will be as much use as condom to a celibate eunuch with this. The council's environmental health dept can serve a statutory nuisance notice on your neighbour for the smoke. This would be your best and quickest option. Or possibly the same people or building...

maybe the 'lynch mob' numpties on here would like to comment on these two articles and how to reconcile the two...

So I lit the fire at 9am this morning, neighbours alarm went off about half an ago (11pm) which is 14 hours after our fire was lit.... Doesn't match to the night time alarms and also the fact the alarm went off on Thursday when we hadn't had a fire for 4 nights. I think I'll ring the chimney...

Hi I have just borrowed my neighbour's petrol lawnmower (with his permission) and mowing away happily when it started to spew white smoke. Didn't change in sound, but worried I stopped mowing. it did start up again but thought I should leave it. I will of course offer to pay for it's repair...

If you’re renting report it to your landlord immediately, it's his responsibility to get it sorted out. Tell your neighbour sorry isn’t good enough & he must stop using the burner until it’s properly tested & certified as safe for use. If you don’t share a chimney then it's difficult to say how...

It is permissible to burn garden rubbish, but you should not cause a nuisance to your neighbours. However, your Council should encourage everybody to dispose of their garden rubbish in a sustainable way. Smoke from bonfires which causes a nuisance can be an offence. When I 'bag up' the...

And christians don't commit adultery do we. In fact, we don't even covet our neighbours wife, even if she's really fit. :wink: :lol: I wouldn't know about that, I'm a good boy :lol:

I know...hence my previous irony post about my neighbour not going anywhere near the stuff (locked in his car) whilst I load his trailer...he'll happily be puffing away at his ciggies :) I know a few people who've thrown a big bag of caution to the south westerly wind, only to find them filling...

This is a tricky neighbour situation with no simple mechanical answer - you are dealing with not so much building difficulties but people. Stay calm and polite - but gently insistent. FWIW: dont go in for rendering the stack, not even half of it. Re-furbishing a chimney stack usually needs...

I asked you if it were possible that your neighbour was smoking a legal substance, and you asserted i was being silly, so i wondered if you could tell the difference. If your neighbours on either side of you were smoking such substances but one was CBD and the other was cannabis, can you tell...

I think a communicating alarm is well worth having. My home one calls a monitoring station; the Yale in another house I look after calls my mobile/my home/my neighbour. It is of course essential to have the panel and phone line concealed and well away from any likely point of entry so it has...

I had one fitted about 7 years ago, may chimney was not in the best of nick as there was signs of smoke stains on the upstairs walls in mine and the neighbours property. So it was an easy decision for me to make regarding the liner, I had a stainless steel reinforced one fitted. The stove is...

Hello, thanks for your response. We don't share a chimney with out neighbour, although his is and not too sure when the log burner was installed. Previously we have rented this house out, only moved into it ourselves in May and have noticed the smell since then. There's a barn...

Well, sometimes you're too far away to hear the oven timer, what an innovative use of a smoke alarm! :lol: A certain amount of noise is always to be expected, it is unreasonable to assume that everyone will tiptoe about and keep the same hours as you. However I wonder if problem noise is...

Evening all and hope you all had a nice time over the last couple of days. We've been up to stay at my inlaws since the day before Xmas eve and just returned this morning as my family came to visit us today. When we arrive home this morning, our hallway was stinking of stale smoke. Bearing...

I would have posted this on the gas-fitters page but access is denied. . Dear Brothers. There is currently a debate on the plasterers forum in respect of bricking-up former fireplaces and placing a vent in the brickwork. I once did this on a bedroom fireplace (as part of an improvement...
