Hi,
We recently built a house in an estate. Most of the retaining walls in the estate were put up by the developer but between our block and rear neighbour there is a gentle slope over approx 1m and about 800mm high with our neighbours land on the higher side. The slope runs over the boundary of the 2 blocks. There is not really any need for retaining but our neighbour wants it done and says it's our responsibility. We think otherwise. Does anyone have any experiences with this? Bare in mind none of us changed the natural land, both of the blocks are filled and were like this when we bought. Thank you
