    Boiler Flue in Neighbours Garden

    I have a similar problem in reverse. We live next to a dry cleaner in the centre of a village and his drying machine vents onto our passageway by our house. Unfortunately he has a right to use this for foot access to his shop but nothing else - but took the opportunity to install it without...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    ....would it matter that I can't put a garage there (though we do have gates that enclose one side if we chose) as there are several properties that have ROW over the covered driveway to the rear ? :roll:

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    Well, I've done a little research into both properties.....looking at tythe maps (free on line) from 1842 it would appear both our properties were once entirely separate but owned (but not lived in) by the same person. :? It seems likely then, at some point in the 1850s -60s, that he gave...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    If it helps, I measured what is our end pillar wall on the street side (where our gate pillar meets his property on the street facade) ..it was 2 bricks across, or 18.5 inches.....then I measured best I could immeadiately behind the gate pillar, standing on our driveway (not easy as the building...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    There's no mention in the Land Registry of walls / boundarys (bear in mind my parents only registered their property with L.R., just 4 years ago !!! The drive way is clearly on our deed though along with ROW agreements afforded. My parents have a box of deeds (as they own it outright) which...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    Well, I've downloaded title plans for both properties - neither give a build date :( What are the implications if his is the older property ??....would a seperate wall to support our bedroom have been more...or less likely to have been built ?? ...it seems unlikely that they were built or...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    We own the land below the passage way - he has a ROW along it to the side door of his shop (not used for public access though) along with a couple of people living in houses to the rear ..no issues with that. The property has been in my familys' possession since 1862 ....so no real help as...

    Do I have a Party Wall (in fact any wall at all!!) ?

    We live in an old terrace property (pre 1850). Our property is a different style and height to one of our neighbours (also old), and is set slightly back...so I don't think they were built at the same time. On ground floor between our two properties runs an old cobbled drive. Each side at the...

    Commercial Ventilation Regs Help Please !

    Thank you both for your replies 8) ....I'm going to pursue it further with the council and then start off with a firm letter....which I'm hoping will negate the need to involve a solicitor at this stage. :| ...not holding my breath though as this guy clearly has no regard for our rights...

    Commercial Ventilation Regs Help Please !

    Environmental Heath at the council said they were not interested as it was only water vapour being emitted. :( ....is that right ? They suggested I speak to planning to see if building regs were broken.

    Commercial Ventilation Regs Help Please !

    Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction 8) - I've read the section iii , and that seems to apply ...plus as some else has pointed out, the fact that the vent has 'hot' written on it could mean it represents a fire hazard too, butted right up to our gate as it is.

    I just want to get an idea if any regulation have infact been broken as I have no idea if its legit. or not. :(

    Commercial Ventilation Regs Help Please !

    I should add on reflection, I 'think' it is a steel condesation trap for the vent that is on his wall, and directly behind our gate....it says the word "hot" on it if that makes sense. :?

    Commercial Ventilation Regs Help Please !

    We live in a terraced property in a commercial area, and there is a dry cleaner next door to us whom we don't get on with, he really is a very ignorant & rude person. :( Immediately next to his shop is our drive, the first part of it is a covered archway as we have a bedroom above it (which...
