Knightsbridge is mostly flats, in stucco terraces and mansion blocks.

In a block, the walls and floors you share may have several owners.

Under the Act, the freeholder and longer leaseholders can each be owners.

So one wall can mean several notices, each served correctly.

Townhouses here bring basements and pools. Those need excavation notices to the houses around.

What the Act asks in Knightsbridge.

Who gets a party wall notice in a Knightsbridge mansion block?

Every adjoining owner of the wall or floor you work on.

That can mean the freeholder and several long leaseholders.

We check the titles before serving, so none is missed.

Is a floor between Knightsbridge flats a party wall?

Under the Act, it is a party structure. So the same rules apply.

Steels, new openings or structural work to it need notice.

Does a party wall award replace the freeholder’s licence in Knightsbridge?

No. The award settles the neighbours’ side under the Act.

The licence is the landlord’s consent under your lease.

We work on both at once.

Can a Knightsbridge neighbour appeal a party wall award?

Yes, to the county court, within 14 days of service.

It is rare. A well run award leaves little to appeal.

How much notice does a Knightsbridge basement need?

One month for the excavation. Two months for work to a shared wall.

A pool or plant room below ground usually needs both.
