Burn his house to the fricking ground then steal his drain line.

Or just run your own.

Seriously, if you are legally able to tie in and he has already denied you, what is your plan? Tell him Stout said it was cool?

Either ask for permission or just do your own thing. If I have learned anything it is best to not antagonize crazy neighbors.

Definitely don't want to create a problem. They are good neighbors. Just acting old at the moment.

In regards to me cutting and connecting to his line, I've already guaranteed him that if my line causes any issue I will immediately disconnect and repair his line. This is at no risk to him.

In regards to running my own line, it would have to go through my flower bed with is sloped away from my house. It just makes no sense to run 2 French drains parallel to one another.

And this isn't a project that I'm doing on my own. I have a professional doing the installation and he's the one that said "yes let's tap in". He could've easily said no that's a bad idea and come up with another route and made an additional 1500$ on the install. My drainage guy is going to talk to him in short time. Hopefully he will listen to the professional and we can move on.
