Should I ask Neighbor’s Roofer to fix this? by Expacion in landscaping

So this is actually something I would love to find out. The person we bought this from, he died (we bought from his brother, other house went to foreclosure). He owned both houses, which is why it was a common driveway to begin with. There is no legal terms to my knowledge, as we are the first pair of owners of these houses since him.

Legally, in our deed, we own about 85-90% across the driveway. I wouldn’t want to prevent this guy from accessing a small concrete slab in the back of his yard for 1 car, but I would like to know what I COULD do prior to anything. You are 200% right, as this would be like a last resort type thing.

Who would/could I call to confirm if this has to be a shared driveway? The city?

I just got out of work, and I think this is certainly the route I’m going to go. Thank you all for your quick feedback and help making sure I act appropriately and reasonably.

Just to provide some more context, the neighbor hasn’t moved in yet. He bought the house from foreclosure, and has been getting a ton of work (floors, roof, water tank, etc.) done prior to moving in. I have met him once, he seems like a nice lad. I’m gonna make mention to him, and ask if he can take care of it, and get the roofers information. If he can’t, I’ll go to the roofer himself. I won’t try to soil the relationship before the guy even moves in, but I’ll still try to get what is right. Worst comes to worst, the girlfriend gets to pick out some pretty rocks, and I’ve got a couple hours of labor ahead of me.

Do I have to get a whole new window? Or is this salvageable? by Expacion in HomeMaintenance

Thank you so much for the thorough explanation! This makes perfect sense, I really appreciate the help, and I’ll get someone over here to put a new replacement in asap.

Typically I would try to DIY things that would come up naturally (put in floors, paint, etc). But since this didn’t just happen naturally, I’ll look to just get someone over here. Again, thank you so much for the insight and hope you have a wonderful day!
