AS A PROPERTY OWNER ARE YOUR NEIGHBOURS CAUSING YOU A NUISANCE?

Hi this is Deborah and Euzi. Spring is here. We are all in the garden. And so are the neighbours...
Do you own your property? Are you having problems with a neighbour who is interfering with the enjoyment of your property?

- Are they constantly leaving large amounts of rubbish outside your property which could attract pests?

- Are they constantly playing loud music at night?

- Do their tree roots encroach into your property?

- Do they have broken drain pipes that are causing water to constantly hit your walls causing damp to your property?

- Or are they doing something that causes you loss of enjoyment of your home due to fumes, dust and smell created by them?

Their actions could be considered in law to be a “NUISANCE”.

For the purposes of an action in tort, a nuisance may either be private or public. This post is about Private Nuisance.

Obviously the most sensible and cost effective thing to do if you are having any of the above or similar problems is to speak to your neighbour and try to resolve the matter amicably, but ,if they are unwilling to deal with the matter then you do not have to put up with this unpleasant behaviour and you can bring a claim for the nuisance.

The chances of your claim being successful will be greater if you have good evidence so don’t forget to:

- Make visual or oral recordings of the nuisance:

- Take photographs

- Obtain a report ie. a surveyor’s report

- Keep a diary of the incidents
