Hi All,
There is a new house being built next door and they have just installed scaffolding that will be up for the next 2mths while they complete the roof and 2nd story fittings. The scaffolding extends over the property boundary and as you can see in the picture overhangs at the 2nd story level. I was just wondering if this is legal and compliant? The area the scaffolding overhangs is a walking through fare on my property and I have 4 small children always playing here and I'm concerned that someone using the scaffolding may drop something at some point and potentially injure one of my children.
Where do I stand with this? Am I able to request the builder to re-do the scaffolding within their property boundary m, even if this is difficult for them to achieve? We don't have a great relationship with the neighbours builder and I already know he would be quite ignorant with this, so just looking for advice on this and who best to now take this issue to if it isn't squeaky clean & legal?
Thanks
