What Our Customers Say





I needed to find out about party wall agreements for my elderly father. Nicola and Alistair quickly responded to my inquiry. They were both very helpful and explained how everything worked and what the process would be.
They kept me informed about what was happening and what each step would involved.
I was very happy with the service I received.

We recently used The Party Wall Pro for a party wall dispute. Alastair Holland was a pleasure to deal with throughout. He responded to my enquiry within minutes, explained all the costs upfront so we had no hidden surprises. He conducted himself throughout the process professionally and also put up with me chasing excellently. We have now gained our party wall award and looking forward to finally building our extension after 2 1/2 years of disputes. Would highly recommend and use again if ever needed

Alastair was very helpful in completing our party wall agreement in a short time and incorporated existing available information into the agreement.

What is a Party Wall and the Party Wall Act

A simple definition of a Party Wall is a boundary or wall shared between two or more owners.

The Party Wall Act is a legal framework which enables works to be carried out to a property which is either close to or on the party wall of the adjoining owner. It is there to protect the adjoining owner from damage and dispute but also to allow the building owner to carry out the works needed to be done to their property. The act covers several areas which include:

  • New building works to an area previously not built on which is either on the boundary or near the foundations of the adjoining property, such as an extension
  • Works to existing shared party walls and structures, such as taking out a chimney breast or inserting a new structural beam.
  • Excavations which are within 3m directly or 6m if the foundations are lower than the adjoining owners foundations on a 45 degree angle.
  • It can also cover oversailing rights and party fence works
