  • Guys next to us are lowering the ceiling in their house for a new loft extension. I can hear them hammering away at the walls etc but also lots of debris falling into our side. Anything I can do, or just put up with it?

    I've dropped the solicitor a line. They haven't served me notice but the work started this week. Didn't realise they were doing any work in the loft until today.

    This all sounds so wrong. Presumably their loft conversion required planning permission, so you should have received a letter inviting your comments/objections. When our neighbours got a loft extension we had a party wall survey and award (at their expense) which involved the surveyer coming round to take photos of our side of the party wall so that they coul put right/pay for any damage caused by the work.
