Neighbours Extension Roof Overhang

Let s say the neighbour took the issue to court and he could prove the tresspass and could prove that the builder had not acquired specific rights by easement.

Neighbours extension roof overhang.

My neighbour has a shed in his garden the roof of which overhangs my fence and the rain runs off directly onto the fence and supporting fence post causing it to rot out. Your neighbour s overhanging roof is a simple matter of encroachment. If a person s extension goes over the boundary by a few inches the neighbour or the neighbour s successor if the house is sold cannot just turn round a year or so later and demand it be removed. Neighbours have extended their house by putting a conservatory concerned as the gutter overhangs into our property.

You do not specify what the building is i am presuming it is an extension on their property. I have spoken to my neighbour twice over recent months asking him to reposition his shed in order to alleviate the problem but to no avail. This is unlawful unless you have given permission. The same applies where your neighbour has built his balcony or roof or any part of his building over your land.

A further problem i noticed is that the neighbour s flat roof and fascia overhangs the boundary and their flat roof is also at an unusually steep angle. Neighbours guttering overhangs my property how do i prevent my neighbour putting the gutter from his new building over my boundary. If your neighbour has built inside or over his building line or even worse has built over the border of your property he has encroached on your property.
