My neighbour has just had a new roof with thicker batons. His roof is now higher than mine. They’ve installed a bonding tray but my tiles are raised at edge sitting on the tray. Therefore 2nd row of tiles are now sitting at a v angle. Neither neighbour nor roofer admitting any accountability saying it’s new regulations on size of batons and my roof needs replacing anyway. I now had a triangular gap in between every tile going up roof in 2 nd row of tiles up the roof. Where do I stand as being unreasonable to correct. No discussion with me beforehand.
