When it comes to property, whether you’re planning an extension, converting your loft, or simply improving your home, there’s often more involved than just bricks and mortar. If your project affects a wall, boundary, or structure shared with a neighbour, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 may come into play.

That’s where Shared Walls steps in.


What We Do

At Shared Walls, we provide specialist Party Wall Surveying services. Our role is to guide homeowners, property developers, and building professionals through the legal and practical requirements of the Party Wall Act.


We handle every step of the process, including:


  • Serving notices on adjoining owners.

  • Preparing and agreeing Party Wall Awards (the legal documents that protect everyone’s interests).

  • Carrying out schedules of condition to record the state of neighbouring properties before works begin.

  • Resolving disputes fairly and efficiently.


Our goal is simple: to make the process smooth, stress-free, and legally compliant.


Who We Help

We work with:

  • Homeowners planning extensions, loft conversions, basements, or internal structural changes.

  • Neighbours (adjoining owners) who have received a Party Wall notice and want expert advice.

  • Property developers and builders who need professional surveyors to keep projects moving on time and within the law.


Whether you’re starting a project or responding to one, we ensure your rights and responsibilities are clear.


Why You Need Us

The Party Wall Act can feel complicated, but ignoring it can lead to serious delays, legal disputes, and extra costs.


Our clients choose Shared Walls because:

  • We protect your property and your rights.

  • We make sure all agreements are legally valid.

  • We help maintain good neighbourly relations, reducing the risk of conflict.

  • We give you peace of mind, knowing your project is on the right track.


In short: if your work affects a shared wall, boundary, or structure, you need a Party Wall Surveyor on your side.


Final Word

At Shared Walls, we believe in keeping things simple, professional, and fair. Whether you’re building, renovating, or protecting your property, we’re here to ensure the Party Wall process doesn’t become a headache.
