Why You May Need a Party Wall Surveyor in Tonbridge
When undertaking construction work near a shared property boundary or wall, the Party Wall Act requires you to inform adjoining owners and, in many cases, appoint a qualified Party Wall Surveyor. Fortunately, our team in Tonbridge is here to help you navigate the legal requirements, avoid disputes, and ultimately ensure smooth progress for your project.
Understanding the Party Wall Act and Your Rights
The Party Wall Act 1996 sets out the rights and obligations of property owners when planning work that affects a party wall or boundary. It helps prevent disputes by ensuring that all parties are informed and have agreed upon the terms of the construction. The Act also applies to excavations within 3-6 metres of a neighbour’s building or structure that are deeper than their existing foundations. Our surveyors are experts in the Act and can guide you through the process to protect your rights and minimize potential conflicts.
