What We Cover
If you're planning building work, there's a good chance the Party Wall Act applies. Here are the most common scenarios we deal with.
Rear & Side Extensions
Building close to or on the party wall? We serve the correct notices and manage the full process.
Loft Conversions
Work to the party wall above ceiling level requires a Section 2 notice. We handle it.
Basement Excavations
Digging within 3 to 6 metres of a neighbouring property triggers a Section 6 notice.
Works Already Started
Missed serving a notice? Our retrospective service gets you back on the right side of the law.
How It Works
Our process covers every step of the Party Wall Act from start to finish, with clear updates at every stage.
Get a Quote
Tell us about your project: property type, works planned, and your neighbour situation. We respond instantly with a fixed fee.
We Serve the Notices
We prepare and serve the legally required notices by Recorded Delivery post within 72 hours of instruction.
Neighbour Response Period
Your neighbours have 14 days to respond. We contact them proactively, answer their questions, and aim for an Agreed Surveyor outcome.
Schedule of Condition
A trained inspector visits your neighbour's property to photograph and document its current condition, protecting both parties before works begin.
Party Wall Award
We prepare the formal Party Wall Award document, which sets out the permitted works, working hours, and protection for both parties.
Works Can Begin
Once the Award is served, your builder can start. We remain available throughout the build for any queries.
Traditional Surveyors vs Party Wall Online
Party Wall Online is the UK's only digital-first party wall service. Here's what that means in practice.
Start for just £25
Building owner: you, the person carrying out the works. Adjoining owner: your neighbour whose property is affected.
Pay £25to have your notice served. If your neighbour consents, that's all you ever pay. The full surveying fee only applies if they dissent or don't respond.
Your notice is drafted and served within 72 hours. If your neighbour consents, the job is done, and you pay nothing more. Most neighbours consent.
- Notice served within 72 hrs
- All correspondence managed
- RICS-qualified surveyor assigned
If neighbour consents
£25
Total. Nothing more to pay.
Step 2 — Only if your neighbour dissents or doesn't respond
If a dispute is triggered, a Party Wall Award must be produced. Your £25 is already counted. Choose the service that applies:
Building Owner's Surveyor
Balance due if dissent: £570 — £25 already paid
When your neighbour appoints their own surveyor, we act solely for you as the Building Owner.
- Statutory notice service
- Award negotiation & drafting
- RICS-regulated throughout
- All correspondence managed
Agreed Surveyor
Balance due if dissent: £819 — £25 already paid
The most efficient option: one surveyor acts for both you and your neighbour.
- Everything in Building Owner's
- Schedule of Condition survey
- Party Wall Award preparation
- Single point of contact
Additional Neighbour
Each additional adjoining owner beyond the first adds a flat supplement.
- Separate notice service
- Separate Award if required
- Additional Schedule of Condition
- RICS-compliant documentation
Optional Add-ons
The majority of our customers pay just £25 in total, because most neighbours consent. You only ever pay more if a formal Award is required.
