Party Wall Services
What We Do
Firstly, we will confirm whether or not you need a Party Wall Surveyor, if you do and we are chosen to act on your behalf, we will:
-
Advise what Notice needs to be served
-
Serve the relevant Notice
-
Prepare the Party Wall Award
We will also carry out a schedule of condition if requested. This is not a requirement under the Act, however if you have had a Schedule of Condition carried out and damage occurs as a result of the works, it will help to accurately determine the extent of that damage. If you decide not to have a schedule of condition carried out, it can be difficult to prove what damage has been caused by the works or whether it was there before the works started.
