Felt compelled to contribute so had to register. My first contribution! Eek. Recommend contacting RICS who offer a neighbour dispute service. Aside from professional independent advice there is staged escalation of activity that may assist and which you could explore. I think you will want to be clear what 'resolution' means to you. Litigation will involve the contribution and cost of an expert at some point so you may as well get a handle on that now. Also, if the construction is not in accordance with the planning drawings, more than likely it is not in accordance with the Approval and I would think there is recourse through the Planning Department of Southwark. It should be sufficient to notify the LA that the development is not in accordance with their permission. The website has a link entitled 'Report a Breach of Planning Control'. If this is the fault of the Contractor, ask your neighbour (tongue in cheek) if they want to do the litigation bit since since it is likely they will suffer damages through rectification costs. http://www.rics.org/uk/join/member-accreditations-list/dispute-resolution-service/drs-products/neighbour-disputes-service/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-and-building-control
