Party Wall Surveyor in Outer Hebrides

The procedure for dealing with party walls regarding building and construction works, particularly any conversions or extensions to your property, can be tricky. However, if party wall notices are taken into consideration from the start of a project, and you are sure to appoint surveyors to undertake the required surveys as soon as possible then it can be easier to get a Party Wall Agreement.

You must seek a Party Wall Agreement if your planned work consists of either building on or at the boundary line between two properties, or on an existing party wall or structure, or if your project calls for digging below and near the present foundation line of the neighbouring property. In all of these examples, you must submit a Party Wall Notice to the owner of the adjoining property. This includes all owners of the property, so if the neighbouring property is a leasehold or home with multiple occupancy you might need to serve this notice to multiple people. Your Party Wall Notice should contain information about yourself and your property as well as specifics about the extent and nature of the planned work.
