Another image showing his roof just under my sill

I never noticed before but it's definitely over hanging

cheers Vinn and everyone who has helped.

Here's a close up of the beading

Don't mention my roof. Here it is The bead is metal. I am going to wait to see how he rectifies the problem tommorow Here is the builders reply to my query as to what he intends to do If you let me finish the job then you will see mate it you open your eyes you will see that we have...

Facebooked the builder to ask what was happening and he has said he is coming back to sort my side out. He at least admitted he did not cut a straight line.

Is this normal. Yesterday they put the scratch coat on after cutting a crap line down the house. Today they use a metal bead but have left a few inches next to it on my side bare.

Cheers for the helpful reply. It's been 48 hours since he cut the Grove in the wall and damaged the render by the sills. We have had a lot of rain over night. I have now taken photos and a video just in case.

£3000 is what he told me. And for that he has no scaffolding, he is doing some of the removal of the render himself, no dowel for cutting a straight line, and no beading where he has cut the slot as the line is not straight. My wife who watched the whole thing said builder had ladder on the...

cheers woody

he has now said that if he damages my render when getting his off he will not bother to repair it as i am refusing to give him a contribution. surely it does not cost £3000 anyway to render one wall. surely by putting the join next to my window it could cause issues for me in the future rather...

he has also said its costing him £3000 to have that wall done hence why he wants me to pay a contribution

I live in a terraced house and yesterday evening my neighbor told me that he is removing the rendering on the back end of his house as there is a crack and water is coming into a bedroom. My side is completely dry. He says its only a matter of time before my side starts to crack and wants to...
