Am I correct that
before the work has started
the benefits to the adjoing neighbour are that they have the right to refuse the work initially being done, and to get a surveyor involved to ensure that any work done does not damage their adjoining property.
What benefit is there after the works have been done - specifically, to the homeowner who carried out the works?
I ask because we were advised by builder not to bother with a formal written PWA before removing chimneys - we got verbal permission though - now i'm concerned this may come back to haunt us
Thanks!
