What Is the Party Wall etc. Act 1996?
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is legislation that governs construction works involving shared walls, boundary structures, and excavations near neighbouring properties in England and Wales. If you are planning works such as a loft conversion, rear extension, basement dig, or structural alterations to a wall shared with a neighbour, you are legally required to serve notice before works begin.
Failure to comply with the Act can result in injunctions, disputes, and costly delays. Our party wall expertise ensure a smooth process whilst meeting your legal obligations.
