Wanted recommendations for a Party wall surveyor


Katiesa

Recommended Posts

Hi,

We are set to do a kitchen extension this year and although I'm new to the world of extensions! I believe as well as needing an architect to do the drawings of the kitchen we need a Surveyor to draw up the party wall agreement. Has anyone just used one they can recommend? Do you know how this process works and the approximate cost?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi


Your Architect should really advise you on this, (we normally advise our clients of the process and prepare the party wall notice letters etc.) but it is all explained here: https://www.gov.uk/government/upoads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/35796/party_wall_guide-new-p35.pdf.

Costs can vary. If your neighbours do not contest the work then you do not need to form a party wall agreement and so there should be no requirement for a surveyor or associated costs. If they do costs can vary, depending on how many neighbours are involved and what surveyor they choose to use. If you end up having to deal with a surveyor or surveyors I would budget about ?1000 per neighbour involved.


Hope that helps

I would be happy to recommend nick Stockley at design squared, they are a local company and thoroughly decent.


We live in ED and they guided us through a side return extension from start to finish. I honestly don't know where we would have been without them. This was especially the case with a less than helpful neighbour when it came to the party wall agreement! They also stuck to the price though I have no doubt it took a lot more time than expected.


Hope this helps and happy to show you what we ended up with if it would help.

    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
