North London has terraces, semis and detached houses side by side. Each brings different neighbours within reach of the work. We map them before any notice goes out.

Digging near a neighbour needs a month’s notice. Work to a shared wall needs two. A neighbour has 14 days to reply, and silence is treated as a dispute.

On the hills, a basement brings monitoring of the houses next door. The award sets how readings are taken and reported. Camden caps neighbour damage at Burland category 1.

A schedule of condition records each neighbour’s house before work starts. It protects both sides.
