Q: My neighbour’s building extensions are causing a leak in my home but they have denied that it does. I got a surveyor to look at it and he claims that the extensions are the cause of the leak. My neighbour keeps saying that he’ll get someone to fix the leak, but has yet to do so; what should I do?
