Party Wall Surveyor in Fife

The procedure for dealing with party walls when it comes to building and construction works, particularly any conversions or extensions to your house, can be intricate. However, if party wall notices are considered from the beginning of a project, and you are sure to use surveyors to undertake the necessary surveys as early as possible then it can be simpler to get a Party Wall Agreement.

You are required to seek a Party Wall Agreement if your planned work consists of either building on or at the boundary line between two properties, or on a pre-existing party wall or structure, or if your project requires digging below and near to the present foundation line of the neighbouring property. In all of these situations, you must submit a Party Wall Notice to the owner of the neighbouring property. This includes all owners of the property, so if the adjoining property is a leasehold or home with multiple occupancy you may have to serve this notice to multiple people. Your Party Wall Notice should include information about yourself along with your property as well as information about the scope and nature of the proposed work.
