Feeling bit peeved as just found out our neighbour nearby lied to us about how certain events happened. We get on very well with this neighbour when we see each other outside.
We came back from holiday and found lump of mortar on our front garden. We are a semi, so have neighbour next door. Anyway this neighbour nearby rushed over and said there had been terrible storm and it came off the roof. We called a roofer we knew who inspected it and said tiles are undamaged but mortar and board are damaged and in his opinion a ladder leaning on it had caused the damage. Anyway he fixed it. We then noticed next door had painted their porch on our side so must of had a ladder to access it. When we mentioned this to our neighbour over the road she kept insisting it was the storm and only a small ladder was used. We don’t particularly get on with next door but don’t have a problem if they need to access our property for repairs, so long as we are here and they ask first.
I know this may seem petty, but we’re just so disappointed that our neighbour over the road would lie to us like this. We still say hello outside but not really sure whether to say our roofer is pretty sure a ladder caused the damage.
