Problem with neighbor

[Padma Mody]

I just finish rehab single family and renters are moving today! So, far so good but when I went to the house to give keys to my tenant in the morning, we found one small paper note was stick at the front door of the house. It was like this - call us when you get this note and phone# with the name. So, we called that phone# and left the message. After couple of hours they called us and we find out that he was neighbor next door. He told us that his water bill came too high since my contractor used water from his water connection! 

I seen my times, contractor was using water from tap outside which belongs to our house and other side of this neighbor's house. I told him that it is not possible that my contractor used water from his yard. He told me that he is calling police and will complain. 

I don't know what to do now.. Any idea or advise for this situation.

Sounds like there was no reason to use the neighbor's water. I would let him call the police. You can then explain this to them. I doubt anything will come of it. The neighbor obviously has no proof. If he actually saw someone using his water, he would have said something at the time, not later when he got his bill.
