...depends how long ago. The legislation changed in late 2011 to make such shared drains part of the sewerage companies' responsibilities.
(Prior to that I had on at least two separate occasions to rod my downstream neighbour's section of the foul drain, as he had root intrusion he wouldn't fix, and it was backing up to the three houses upstream, including ours).
