Bonding tray sits too high for tiles

Question

I live in a terraced house 2nd house End house neighbour has just had a new roof with 25mm batons mine are 19 mm. The bonding tray in between sits on his batons therefore I have a drop, my tiles are now all risen up to sit on tray creating a v in 2nd row of tiles. He’s now plugged each gap in my tiles with mortar as refusing to correct problem. I didn’t agree to any changes to my roof during next doors new roofing process. Where do I stand as both being unreasonable.

George · Answer

Hi Claire, your neighbour should have consulted you first as it is unacceptable to leave a joining roof in this condition. We would recommend seeking legal advice if your neighbour is not willing to resolve the matter.

Lucas · Answer

I would recommend 32mm baton and we'll make yours bigger

Billy · Answer

You are right you should have given your permission to any work undertaken on your side of the roof therefor I would seek legal advice

Timothy · Answer

Your neighbours roof has nothing to do with your roof and putting mortar in gaps in your tiles means he has disturbed your roof tiles which may cause problems in the future you should tell the builder put them back the way they were.
you did not ask for any work on your roof and it sounds like a botched job on your tiles you are not been unreasonable.

He has no right to touch your roof

Start by speaking to the neighbour as they should of made you aware this was going to happen and if you and the bonding valley needs to be correctly installed to avoid any water running into your roof

Lee · Answer

It’s the new rules and regulations but the roofer could have altered the buttons on your side so there wasn’t a sudden dip
