Aberdare Party Wall Act Surveying
Under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, every ‘adjoining owner’ in Aberdare or elsewhere is subject to the provisions of the Act.
Party Wall Advice
The Party Wall Act provides a legal framework for preventing disputes and resolving building and boundary problems between neighbours. The Party Wall Act includes new builds, extensions, conversions and building repairs. It also covers boundary walls and excavations, which can affect neighbouring properties.
Every adjoining owner or neighbouring property has rights or responsibilities under the Act. In a typical domestic scenario, this is usually limited to one other neighbouring party. However, in more built up areas or larger commercial developments, the Party Wall Act can affect multiple adjoining owners.
The process of serving Party Wall notices, mediating disputes and issuing Party Wall awards can sometimes become complex, lengthy and expensive, if not handled professionally. The Chartered Surveyors at Aberdare Surveyors can work to ensure the demands of the Party Wall Act are dealt with thoroughly and efficiently.
