Party Wall Notices and Awards in Hampstead


Planning a basement, loft conversion or rear extension in Hampstead?

Or perhaps your neighbour has served you with a notice and you are not sure what it means. If the disagreement is about where the boundary actually runs, that falls outside the Party Wall Act, and we will tell you so at the outset.

The Act sets out a procedure for settling these matters through surveyors and a binding award, without going to court. We take it from notice through to award.

Local Knowledge


Much of Hampstead and West Hampstead is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, semis and mansion blocks, often on London clay. Basement digs, underpinning and steels into shared walls make careful schedules of condition and well-drawn awards essential.


We work day to day with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 and the case law around it, and give clear advice on what the Act requires and how to resolve the issue.


We cover Hampstead, West Hampstead, South Hampstead, Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage, Primrose Hill, Kilburn and Fortune Green, across NW3, NW6 and NW8.

Acting for Building Owners and Neighbours


We act as building owner's surveyor, adjoining owner's surveyor, or agreed surveyor for both. We serve the notices, record the neighbouring property in a schedule of condition, and agree the award. 


Whether you want to build, amend, take out or extend a party wall, get advice first. The Act requires you to serve notice on your neighbour before notifiable work starts, and if they dissent, the surveyors agree the terms in an award.


You could also benefit from some of our other services. From structural inspections and designs to quantity surveying, we can help.
