Just wanting to know I have had my gutters cleaned out by a reputable company however the rain water cannot escape because the ajoining property won't have his cleaned this causes me a problem because when the houses were built these semi detached only had downpipes at one side and they are on his side so what can I do .
Neighbour's gutters are blocked (Ed.)

What are your problems?
Put a down pipe on yours and separate gutters .?
So it’s council property ?

Kevin, you have a very simple problem.
Your gutters are blocked
Your neighbours gutters are blocked.
Your neighbour has the downspout and you cannot fit one.
your neighbour refuses to clean their gutters.
There is also a very simple answer:
Clean both gutters.
Doing this will cost far less than the cost of installing a new downspout.
Or, when your gutter cleaning guy/person is cleaning yours get them to do as far as their gear can reach onto your neighbours, that way any blockage and subsequent spill over appears within their property - the resolution to that is that they then clean their own gutters.

Would/could that be considered trespass ?
