You can sue the owner for negligence causing damage to your home. Contact a lawyer who specializes in this.

My two cents: shop your case to multiple lawyers. It seems open and shut. Someone might take it without retainer

No but I would look for a reputable local list of “best lawyers” and start there. Think you will need a real estate/civil attorney.

Real estate lawyer will be to tell you your rights as a home owner and if your neighbors negligence is enough from monetary damages.

Most real estate lawyers don’t litigate and like to settle out of court, so given your neighbor has been non responsive, settling is probably a non-starter. That’s where the civil lawyer comes to play, takes the case the real estate lawyer creates and litigates as a civil lawsuit against your neighbor.

Good luck, sounds like a shit situation.
