We can assist you in connection with a diverse range of projects, from domestic extensions, to large commercial developments.

Please review our case studies and advice booklets which help guide you if you believe that you need a party wall agreement and what is required and by whom.

We offer a very competitive fixed fee service for residential work of a simple nature, for issuing Party Wall Notices and for preparing residential Party Wall Agreements and Awards as required by the Party Wall Act.

If you are the building owner and are carrying out building works:

+ Help you identify exactly which neighbouring properties fall within the scope of the Party Wall Act.

+ Serve party wall notices.

+ Prepare and agree a party wall award,

  (sometimes also referred to as a party wall agreement).

+ Produce a schedule of the condition of the neighbouring properties, to ensure that you are not held responsible for any pre-existing defects.

If you are an adjoining owner and your neighbour is carrying out building works:

+  Advise you of your rights under the Party Wall Act.

+ Ensure all controls are in place to minimise the risk of damage to your

   property.

+ Monitor the building works and identify any damage to your property.

+ Check with your Local Council that the relevant Planning Permission has

   been applied for.

+ Obtain an injunction if Building owners fail to serve a notice under the

   Party Wall Act.
