Drainage

Hi, my neighbour has just rebuilt the boundary wall to our properties and asked us if they can go ahead with repairing a cracked foul drain which they say has been leaking on their property for 20yrs!! Can this even be possible?? Our houses are detached and we live on a hill, our property is above theirs.

Could it have been causing surface water over a period of 20yrs??0

In a word, yes. But if it is on your property, make sure they do not do any work until you agree it is to be carried out.
MODS. Move to more relevant bored!0
