It is best to start the Party Wall process as soon as your plans and structural drawings are ready. In Islington, where many homes are terraced or semi-detached, at least one adjoining owner is usually affected. Notices must be served one or two months before works begin depending on the type of work, and the full process can take several weeks if surveyors are appointed. Appointing a qualified party wall surveyor in Islington early ensures your project avoids delays and disputes..
Our standard fee is £699 plus VAT per Award when acting for the Building Owner. Reduced fees are available where multiple adjoining owners are involved. If you are an Adjoining Owner, your neighbour (the Building Owner) usually pays your reasonable surveyor costs.

If neighbours consent, notices can be completed within days. If a dispute arises, surveyors are appointed and an Award is agreed, which can take two to eight weeks depending on complexity.
Yes. If both parties are happy to use the same surveyor, we can act impartially as the Agreed Surveyor. This is often quicker and more cost-effective.
