The Party Wall Etc Act 1996 exists to protect both the building and adjoining owners, our aim is to ensure that the protection of the Act is applied wherever it is necessary. Our goal is to increase awareness of the Party Wall Act and to ensure that any works that are subject to the Act are notified correctly.
The Party Wall Etc Act 1996 makes provision for dealing with works that are likely to affect Party Walls and has been extended to include excavations within close proximity to neighbouring structures. The Act is intended to enable works to proceed reasonably and considerately. It is a complex legal document that should be considered whenever works are proposed to party walls or within close proximity to any structure.
The Party Wall Act (Party Wall Law or Party Wall Legislation) and the situations that it applies to are vast. We have many Party Wall Case Studies that we've successfully advised on for our clients. Here are a number of examples where we were appointed to undertake work as party wall surveyors by our clients.
We are asked many questions about The Party Wall Act and how that affects various aspects of property. If you have a question that isn't answered by our website, please contact and we'll be able to help. In simple terms, a wall that divides two properties in separate ownership.
A Party Wall may be built astride the boundary, and therefore in the joint ownership of two or more neighbours, this includes horizontal and vertical boundaries within multiple occupancy structures (Type 'A'); or it may be built solely on the land of one owner but provides a boundary between them (Type 'B').

At Party Wall Services we understand the importance of budgeting for proposed works, including professional fees, and whilst each project must be priced according to the project specifics and the number of adjoining owners/premises affected, an example of our fees is shown below. Please note that costs may differ depending on the nature of the works, location and number of neighbours/ owners involved.
