The Party Wall Etc Act 1996!

The Act provides
a straightforward way of dealing with neighbours when building work involves a party structure or excavation close to an adjoining building. 


 

The Act has minimised disputes by requiring property owners to appoint a surveyor to agree the time and manner in which the work can be carried out, or to appoint an 'agreed surveyor' to act for both of them should problems arise.

  • The Act

An FAQ on the Act can be found on the RICS website, whilst the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister have produced this explanatory booklet

  • Our Expertise

We have acted as agreed, building and adjoining owners surveyor on numerous occasions and also accept appointments as third surveyor by other professionals.

 

...please call and ask for Steven to discuss your party wall matters.
