The wall next door, handled by the team building yours.

A party wall surveyor serves the notices and agrees the awards before work starts. We are NU Projects, design and build in Fulham SW6 since 2010. Party wall work sits inside our construction service, not a separate appointment. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.

Party wall matters sit inside our construction service. The same team already on your project handles them.

Shared wall work, or a nearby excavation, can trigger the Party Wall Act. We check the actual scope first, against the adjoining structures.

Notices are served with the correct period for the work. A friendly conversation helps, but the formal notice must be in writing.

If a neighbour disagrees, a party wall award follows. A surveyor assesses the wall, in liaison with the neighbouring surveyor. An award does not replace planning permission.

What the work includes

  • Notices served with the correct period
  • Awards prepared in liaison with the neighbouring surveyor
  • Handled by the same team running your build
  • Coordinated with planning and building control, not instead of them
  • Part of construction, not a separate appointment

A friendly word helps. The notice still has to be in writing.

When might I need a party wall surveyor?

Work to shared walls, boundaries or nearby excavations can trigger the Party Wall Act.

We review the actual scope and its relationship to adjoining structures before work starts.

Party wall agreements were in the scope of each of our Fulham basements.

How much notice do neighbours need under the Party Wall Act?

The notice period depends on the type of notifiable work.

Our surveyor confirms the notices, recipients and dates. A friendly conversation does not replace the formal process.

Can a party wall award replace planning permission?

No. Party wall procedures and planning permission deal with different matters.

Other approvals and property rights can still be relevant.

Who pays the party wall surveyors’ fees?

Fee responsibility depends on the circumstances and the surveyors’ own determination.

We ask for an estimate and how extra time or changing drawings are handled.
