Building work next door causing subsidance

    Hi, I'm just looking for a bit of advice please.

    There is a new house being built next door to my partners property. Today we realised that the wall that divides the front and back gardens has started to subside towards the building work. The wall itself runs for about 10m perpendicular to the house to the boundary with the new house/building site. A fair bit of land was cleared for this new house. We have taken pictures of the wall and intend to discuss with the owner later. The house itself looks to be OK.

    To be honest, we don't really know how to address this so any help would be appreciated. Do we:
    1. Inform my partners insurer?
    2. Get an engineer/surveyor to do a site survey?
    3. We're jumping the gun, it's not a big deal and just wait and see what the builder/owner say?

    When building started we took pictures of the wall and pillars nearest the building site so at least we have that.

    Thanks

    Talk to builder next door.
    Stop works to avoid further damage.
    Get engineer to survey and advise.
    Take from there.
