Chaps,
Is there anyhting that says that a company cannot negatively impact someones home.
Story is.. New build house, friend has moved in as the road has been completed. the builders however are using the road as an access to a new building site which "apparently" was not advised when the houses were sold.
the upshot of this is that every day the house, car and pathways are covered in mud from the lorrie sand dumper trucks. the trucks also have to mount the pavement if any residents park outside their home.
Just any assistamce welcome as the house builder have effectively said f
k off.

He should tell the council. They will have rules regarding this (Rules/ conditions are stipulated in the planning permission)
The council will then ask the builders to make sure road is kept clean 'WITHIN REASON'. they may also have rules regarding parking on verges and what not.
Essentially, he needs to speak to the council, as they are the ones with authority.

My parents had an issue similar to this on the new estate that they moved into. They struggled to get the council to do anything because until the development is finished the road isn't "adopted" by the council and the land still technically belonged to the developers!!!
Its definitely worth a call to the council but if the road is not technically yet a public road then he's just going to have to grin and bear it I'm afraid.

ksIf the development is still on going, and that road is part of the devlopment, then unfortunately there is not a lot your mate can do.
Only other thing to suggest is write a nice, polite letter to the MD of said builders explaining your plight and just hope they take measures to reduce the inconvenience as much as possible. But bear in mind, if the development is ongoing, then your mate is effectively living on a building site, so the roads will get messy. Its a risk he should have know about when moving in.

Funny, but oh so true. Had a customer in the other day who couldn't finance some chewing gum, unemployed along with his hideous wife and their asbo-licious kids telling me all about how 'the housing' had given him and his band of scrotes a nice clean new build worth £300k+. Bet the neighbours are thrilled.....technically yes I think until the roads are adopted by council (post completion) it is privately owned.
However, in the devlopment at end of our road there were conditions of reasonable efforts to keep road clean and regular cleaning of site vehicles etc.
If all esle fails I suggest politely keeping in with the site manager and express your concerns, reglarly if necessary, they normally take the hint.
Having said that after numerous complaints of builders emptying their morning McD breakfast wrappers etc. on our road, the thing that worked was me collecting weeks worth and emptying it on the site managers desk .......... needless to say enough was enough - and it worked - that was after lots of re-assurances that situation would improve and I advised him that I would do that.
