Working across London & the Home Counties — see the areas we cover.

Service 01

Party Wall Notices

We review your proposed works, identify which Party Wall Notices are required and serve the correct notices on the relevant adjoining owners.

  • Review of drawings and proposed works
  • Identification of relevant adjoining owners
  • Appropriate Party Wall Notices prepared and served
  • Land Registry ownership checks where required
  • Management of responses and statutory timescales

Service 02

Party Wall Awards

Where a dispute arises under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, the appointed surveyor or surveyors resolve the relevant matters through a Party Wall Award.

We explain which appointment route applies, what the Award covers and our fixed fees before you instruct us.

  • Agreed Surveyor — one impartial surveyor for both owners
  • Building Owner Surveyor — acting for you where your neighbour appoints their own surveyor
  • Adjoining Owner Surveyor — acting for you after receiving a Notice
  • Schedules of Condition where appropriate
  • Clear fixed fees agreed before we begin

Service 03

Building Owner Surveyor

If your neighbour dissents and appoints their own surveyor, we can act as your Building Owner Surveyor and manage the Party Wall process on your behalf.

  • Review of drawings and structural information
  • Liaison with the adjoining owner’s surveyor
  • Schedule of Condition where required
  • Preparation and agreement of the Party Wall Award
  • Practical advice throughout the process

Service 04

Agreed Surveyor

Where both owners are comfortable appointing the same surveyor, an Agreed Surveyor can provide a straightforward and cost-effective route for suitable projects.

The surveyor acts impartially under the Act rather than representing either owner.

  • One surveyor appointed by both owners
  • Independent administration of the Party Wall process
  • Review of relevant drawings and technical information
  • Schedule of Condition where required
  • Preparation of the Party Wall Award

Service 05

Adjoining Owner Surveyor

If you have received a Party Wall Notice, you may appoint your own surveyor. We can act on your behalf, review the proposed works and liaise with the Building Owner’s surveyor to safeguard your interests under the Act.

  • Review of the Party Wall Notice
  • Review of drawings and relevant technical information
  • Schedule of Condition where appropriate
  • Liaison with the Building Owner’s surveyor
  • Agreement of the Party Wall Award

Service 06

Schedule of Condition

A Schedule of Condition provides a detailed photographic and written record of the adjoining property before building works begin.

It provides a clear reference point should damage later be alleged.

Commercial properties

Commercial Schedules of Condition are provided through our dedicated LeaseSOC service — visit leasesoc.co.uk.

  • Detailed inspection
  • Written condition record
  • Supporting photographs
  • Clear digital report
  • Drone inspection where required and appropriate
