Local Knowledge, Professional Support

Watford is home to a wide variety of properties, from Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Central Watford and West Watford, to newer homes and developments in areas like Oxhey, Nascot Wood, and North Watford. Each building type brings its own challenges when it comes to shared walls, boundaries, and foundations – and our in-depth local experience means we can provide the right advice for your property.

We work with private homeowners, builders, property managers, and developers across the area, offering a responsive and knowledgeable service that keeps projects compliant and on track.

Our Party Wall Services

We offer a complete range of services under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, including:

1. Party Wall Notices
If your planned work falls under the Act, you are legally required to serve notice to your neighbours. We draft and serve valid Party Wall Notices on your behalf, ensuring you start the process correctly and avoid unnecessary delays.

2. Party Wall Awards
If your neighbour dissents (or doesn’t respond to the notice), we act as your appointed surveyor or as an agreed surveyor for both parties. We then prepare a Party Wall Award – a legally binding agreement that sets out how and when the works will take place, along with any protective measures required.

3. Schedule of Condition Reports
Before work begins, we carry out a photographic and written record of the adjoining property’s condition. This protects both parties by providing a clear benchmark in case any damage is reported during or after the works.

4. Advice for Adjoining Owners
Have you received a Party Wall Notice? We represent adjoining owners by reviewing notices and plans, inspecting the property if needed, and negotiating fair terms within the Party Wall Award. Our goal is to protect your interests and ensure all works are carried out safely and properly.

When Do You Need a Party Wall Notice in Watford?

You’ll likely need to serve a Party Wall Notice if your work includes:

Building a rear or side extension

Carrying out a loft conversion involving steel beams

Excavating for a basement or new foundations

Removing a chimney breast attached to a shared wall

Constructing new walls, fences, or outbuildings close to or on a boundary line

Making structural changes to a party wall or structure

We can advise early in the design stage whether the Party Wall Act applies, so you can budget accordingly and keep your timeline realistic.
