Default Neighbours' water on my roof.

Hi Guys and Mary.

I live in a link-detached house (detached but joined by the garages).

My neighbours' garage roof is approx 2ft higher that mine due a slight
slope.

His garage roof drains directly on to mine, no gutters between and my roof
drains into a gutter at one end.

My problem is that he has had a leaking overflow for at least 4 weeks now
and I have asked him to fix the leak and reminded him that he said (a couple
of years ago) that he would put a gutter on his bit between us.

He has said that he is waiting for a plumber and there is no need for any
extra guttering as this is how the houses were designed.

What can I do??

How does he know that the houses were designed this way? Have you
checked similar houses down the street to see if is this is true?

It doesn't take 4 weeks to find a plumber. The guy is obviously an
arsehole. I'd give him a little more time but in future make sure you
never do the sod any favours.
