If you’ve been served a Party Wall Notice, it’s important to act quickly. You typically have just 14 days to respond. Failing to do so may allow your neighbour’s surveyor to be appointed on your behalf. To avoid unnecessary complications or costs, get in touch with us as soon as you receive a notice.
In most cases, if you are the adjoining owner, our fees are covered by the person carrying out the works—meaning there is usually no cost to you.
Who We Work With
We act for both building owners (those carrying out works) and adjoining owners (neighbours affected). Our clients include:
- Homeowners & landlords
- Developers & construction companies
- Architects, designers & planners
- Businesses of all sizes
From small extensions to multi-million-pound developments, our expert knowledge and low-cost fee structure make us the go-to choice across the UK.
Why the Party Wall Act Matters
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 provides a legal framework for construction works near or on shared boundaries, including walls, floors, and foundations within 3–6 metres of neighbouring properties.
Complying with the Act isn’t optional – ignoring it could result in legal disputes, injunctions, and costly delays.
Why Choose a Professional Surveyor?
While you can serve your own notices, mistakes are common and often invalidate the notice entirely. Party wall surveyors bring expert knowledge of construction, case law, and best practice – ensuring your project is fully compliant and your position protected.
