What Is A Party Wall?

A party wall is a dividing structure between two properties. This common wall, also known as a demising or parting wall, separates and supports homes or buildings.

These walls are essential in establishing boundaries and ensuring property divisions are clear.

When Is A Party Wall Notice Required?

If a property owner plans to undertake construction or renovation work affecting a party wall, they must serve a party wall notice to the adjoining property owner at least two months prior to construction.

This ensures both homes are aware of upcoming changes that may affect adjoining walls.

Consent To The Construction Work

Consent to the construction work refers to the agreement by property owners for building projects near a shared wall.

This involves obtaining agreement from neighbours and ensuring all building work and conditions adhere to documented agreements.

Dissent And Appoint A Surveyor

Dissent and appoint a surveyor occurs when an adjoining owner disagrees with proposed works, requiring a surveyor’s services to provide safeguards.

A surveyor is appointed to represent interests, with schedules of condition serving as the basis for their assessment.

Agree on a Party Wall Surveyor

Agreeing on a party wall surveyor involves appointing a professional to act on behalf of both parties involved in the construction.

This decision ensures an unbiased Party Wall Award, protecting property interests.

Building Owners

Building owners are responsible for complying with legal requirements related to any work affecting a shared wall.

They must give notice and obtain consent from adjoining owners before starting any building work.

Adjoining Owners

Adjoining owners are those who hold a freehold, leaseholder, or head-lessee interest in the neighbouring property affected by shared wall works.

They must be informed of and give consent to any proposed works.

Frequently Asked Questions

It covers three types of work: party structure works, new wall construction at the property boundary, and excavation works near the neighbouring property.

These requirements ensure legal compliance with property boundaries and shared wall rules.

Any work that could potentially disturb the party wall, such as building a basement extension near the wall or removing chimney breasts attached to it, would require the services of a surveyor. This is where a Schedule of Condition is required, to record the condition of the neighbouring property prior to the commencement of works.

These precautions help protect both properties’ structural integrity during construction.

A Line of Junction Notice should be served one month before building a new wall at the boundary. A Party Structure Notice should be served two months before carrying out works to the party wall or party structure. A Notice of Adjacent Excavation should be served one month prior to excavating within 3m or 6m of the neighbouring property to specified depths (we will advise).

Proper serving of notices helps prevent disputes and ensure legal compliance.

Our party wall surveyors will estimate the total cost based on the plan of the construction works. We always provide transparent and competitive estimates.

These costings ensure you understand the financial commitment prior to any agreements.

Our Reviews

Rob Kemp
We used Hamilton Darcey for our external repair project in north London, I don’t often write reviews but I can’t thank them enough for overseeing the restoration of our building. We were updated regularly throughout the project of progress and they managed to work with our limited budget, finishing with the contract sum provided
