Get Party Wall Surveyor quotes today!
The procedure for dealing with party walls regarding building and construction works, especially any conversions or extensions to your property, can be intricate. However, if party wall notices are considered from the start of a project, and you are sure to employ surveyors to carry out the required surveys as early as possible then it can be much easier to get a Party Wall Agreement.
After a Party Wall Notice is served, the neighbour has fourteen days to agree to the works, in which case they can proceed under a Party Wall Agreement. If the neighbour dissents to the notice, a surveyor must be appointed who will reach an Agreement between the two parties, setting out the extent of the work as well as any procedures that either party could use to recoup any damages they might have incurred due to the works.

The London Borough of Richmond upon Thames in south-west London, England, forms part of Outer London and is the only London borough on each side of the River Thames. The borough wasestablished in 1965 by the merger of the Municipal Borough of Twickenham from Middlesex with the Municipal Borough of Richmond plus the Municipal Borough of Barnes from Surrey; the new council’s offices have been centred at York House in Twickenham. It covers a total area of about 22.17 square miles.
There are over one hundred parks and open spaces within its boundary and 21 miles (34 km) of river frontage. 140 hectares within the borough are designated as a part of the Metropolitan Green Belt. The predominant other land use is residential use and most organisations within the boundaries consist of retail, property improvement and development and skilled services. Some parts of it, which includes Barnes, Richmond, St Margarets, Cambridge Park and Marble Hill, areas of Twickenham and a great deal of East Sheen, compete with Stanmore Hill and Kenley as the highest house-price districts and neighbourhoods of Outer London.
In 2006, research discovered that, around the quantitative statistical indices used, the borough had the best standard of living in London and was in the top quarter of local authorities nationwide.
