NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle party wall notices and awards in South London SW and SE. Fees are priced per project by our own quantity surveyor, from the actual scope. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.
Most South London houses share at least one wall. A terrace shares two.
Loft steels, side returns and basement underpinning each touch that wall. Every one needs notice under the 1996 Act.
Detached Wimbledon and Dulwich houses are not exempt. A dig within three or six metres can still need notice.
We serve notices from our own construction drawings, so nothing is guessed. If a neighbour dissents, the surveyors agree an award.

Further reading, from the blog
Does a detached Wimbledon house need party wall notices?
It can. A dig near a neighbour’s foundations needs notice.
The test is three or six metres, by depth.
What happens if a Battersea neighbour does not reply?
Two weeks without an answer is treated as dissent.
Each side then has a surveyor, and they settle an award.
Which South London projects need party wall notices?
Most loft, kitchen and basement schemes, because they touch a shared wall.
A new bathroom or kitchen refit rarely does.
Do Dulwich neighbours each need their own surveyor?
Not necessarily. One agreed surveyor can serve both owners.
It saves time when relations are good.
