“Dear PoPville,
Our next door neighbors are doing a gut job reno (after work being stopped for not having proper permits…) we haven’t been notified because their permits say they aren’t doing structural work. That being said, the construction is kicking up a huge amount of dust in our partially finished basement, where we have a large amount of our personal belongings in storage and use as an office. What, if any, responsibility does the neighbor have for remediation or protection of our belongings?
I personally have a dust allergy, but this is where we store baby items, clothes, fine china and crystal, etc. The owner lives in Maryland and the couple of times she’s been to the property she won’t even say hello back, so having a quick convo with her about it won’t go anywhere. “
