Most South Kensington stucco terraces rise four or five storeys. Many now hold a flat on each floor.

So your neighbours sit above and below you, not only beside. The floor under your feet is a party structure.

Opening a ceiling for steels can touch the floor above. That is notifiable work.

Behind the terraces run the mews. A mews house sits tight against the houses either side.

We check every title first. Then each owner of the wall or floor gets a proper notice.

What the council allows in South Kensington.

Council: Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, for planning. Party walls fall under a separate Act.
Floors: A floor dividing two flats counts as a party structure. Work to it needs two months’ notice.
Owners: Freeholders, and leaseholders with more than a yearly tenancy, each count as adjoining owners.
Lower ground: Underpinning a shared wall to drop a floor is party structure work.
Basements: Policy CD11. One storey, under no more than half the garden. No digging beneath a listed house.
