PARTY WALL ADVICE FROM WHITSTABLE SURVEYORS
The Party Wall Act provides a legal framework for preventing disputes and resolving building and boundary problems between neighbours. This includes new builds, extensions, conversions and building repairs as well as boundary walls and excavations.
These can all affect neighbouring properties. Every adjoining owner or neighbouring property has rights or responsibilities under the Party Wall Act.
In a typical domestic scenario, this is usually limited to one other party.
In larger commercial developments and in built up areas like Whitstable, the Party Wall Act can affect multiple adjoining owners at the same time.
A large development may affect many users.
Work on a flat may affect the neighbours above you, below you and on two sides.
