Wanted recommendations for a Party wall surveyor

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.

      Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.

      Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.

      I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
