We get it, Party Wall Matters can be a complicated area to navigate through. That’s why as structural engineers AND party wall surveyors we are uniquely positioned to help you simplify and clarify the whole process.
In short, whenever you want to build a rear/side extension along the boundary you are most likely required to serve section 1&6 notice to your neighbours. Thinking of placing a few steel beams rested on the party wall or removing a chimney breast? You’ve guessed it, another section 3 notice needs to be served to your neighbours.
At HM Structures, we can act as both your Building Owner Surveyor (if you are undertaking the works and wish to appoint us to act on your behalf), or, we can act as your Adjoining Owner Surveyor if your neighbour is doing the works.
Confused still? Why not get in touch and we can talk through the whole process.
