Most of us share a wall with our neighbour and the Party Wall Act, 1996 (Click here to see the act in full) protects us when work is being carried out to shared walls.
We can undertake the duties of the Party Wall Surveyor as required under the Act.
In addition we can carry out continuous inspections throughout the works and arrange for the engagement where necessary..
We can also arrange all the necessary drawings that a building owner may need to provide his/her neighbour with sufficient information regarding proposed works. |
Typical works that should require party wall notification:
- injecting a damp proof course into a shared wall
- tanking a shared wall
- installing a concrete lintel, steel girder or timber suppport into a shared wall
- underpinning a structure in close proximity to a shared wall
- building an extension near to a shared wall
- raising a party wall at roof level to enclose on it and build habitable space at roof level
- building a wall on the party line where the foundations may spread into the adjoning owner's property
- opening up the floors between flats and altering joists, floor constructions etc..
If you intend to carry out building work which involves one of the following categories:
you must find out whether that work falls within the Act. If it does, you must notify all affected neighbours.
