3Rd party wall agreement: Party Wall Agreement – What is It and Why is It Important?

Party Wall Agreement: Do You Need One?

When do you need a party wall notice or party wall agreement (technically called a party wall award)? Our guide gives you all the answers you need to obtain the correct permissions to carry out your building works. And, if you need one, how to find a party wall surveyor.

When do I need a party wall agreement?

A party wall agreement is needed if you plan on carrying out any building work near or on a party wall.

A party wall is the shared wall, usually between a terrace or semi-detached house, and divides the homes of two separate owners.

It also includes garden walls built over a boundary and excavations close to a neighbour’s property (excavations within three to six meters of your neighbour’s property, depending on the depth of the new foundations).

In the home, Party Wall Agreements are most commonly needed for building works that involve loft conversions, the insertion of damp proof courses and the digging of new foundations (as would be required in building an extension).

Minor works on the party wall such as plastering, electrical work or drilling of internal walls to fit kitchen units or shelving, for example, do not require a party wall agreement.

Obtaining permission for party wall building works

Before party wall building works can start, the homeowner (Building Owner) needs a written Party Wall Agreement from all affected neighbours (Adjoining Owners).

Or, a surveyor has to be appointed to prepare a Party Wall Award (the agreed document outlining how the works should progress). Instantly find qualified local Party Wall Surveyors to obtain quotes with our free Party Wall Surveyor service.

To start this process, the homeowner has to serve a Party Wall Notice on their neighbours, in writing, about the planned party wall works.

Serving a party wall notice

Serving a party wall notice can be done for free, using appropriate standard forms or by a party wall surveyor for a flat fee. A letter of acknowledgement for the neighbour to complete and return is usually included.

A homeowner has to give two months written notice on building works which affect a party wall or boundary, or one month’s notice for excavations.

Planning permission is not needed to serve a Party Wall notice, and once notice has been served, the homeowner has up to a year to start work.

Gaining assent

Once a party wall notice is served, a neighbour has fourteen days to respond, after which, there are three possible outcomes:

i) The neighbour gives assent in writing providing the homeowner will put right any problems.

In such straightforward cases, there is no need to appoint a party wall surveyor or have a Party Wall Award.
The homeowner should take dated pictures of the party wall and ideally have agreed written notes of any cracks, with copies for both.
Or a surveyor could be appointed to assess and prepare a schedule of condition to minimise the risk of disputes later. This should be done shortly before the work starts.

Dissent

ii) If the neighbour dissents (or if they do not NOT reply within 14 days, in which case, they are assumed to have dissented), a Party Wall Award is required.

In this case, both homeowner and neighbour can appoint ONE Agreed Surveyor, usually within ten days, who can act impartially for both.
The agreed party wall surveyor should be independent and NOT the same surveyor the homeowner might be using for their own works. Otherwise their neighbour is unlikely to view the surveyor as neutral.
The Agreed Surveyor produces an “Award” which details the works proposed and a schedule of condition, including pictures, of the neighbour’s home.
Surveyors’ rates vary between £150.00 and £200.00 per hour and a party wall award costs approximately £1000.00.
Some architects are also able to act as surveyors.

iii) Each owner appoints their own surveyor. However, this is expensive for the homeowner who is responsible for the costs of their neighbour’s surveyor as well as their own.

It is important that you set out all the options for your neighbour in the notice.

Maintaining good relationships with your neighbours

Before posting a Party Wall notice through your neighbour’s letterbox, which can appear intimidating, have a friendly chat first.

A shared cup of tea fosters good will and allays fears. Show sketches and explain the planned works and that a formal notice will be sent later.
It is reasonable for your neighbour to ask for the contact details of your surveyor and/or building company for further information and reassurance.

If your neighbour refuses your party wall agreement, it does not mean an end to your building works.

Common mistakes

i) not providing adequate notice

ii) not informing all the affected neighbours. This includes the freeholder and anyone with a leasehold longer than a year. If you live in a terraced house, neighbours on both sides may be affected depending on the works. A homeowner living next to flats, may need to serve notice on a number of different people. Check property ownership via the Land Registry.

iii) not describing the proposed work precisely enough or not including sufficient information. Notices about excavations, for example, need to include full structural details

iv) not using the standard, or wrong form of notice. The form of notice for excavating foundations is different from a party wall.

One building project may need more than one type of notice served on each affected neighbour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to serve a party wall notice?

Minor works such as plastering, electrical work or attaching kitchen units or shelving to a party wall don’t usually require a party wall agreement. But you’ll require one if you are building along a property boundary, excavating within given distances of the party structure and/or altering a party structure. So, for example, you are likely to need one if you are inserting a damp proof course, removing projections from a party wall (such as a chimney breast) or repairing the party wall. If you’re not sure if your project requires one, find and speak to local qualified Party Wall Surveyor here

Can I start work before a Party Wall Award is finalised?

No. You must not start any works covered by the Party Wall Act while you are in dispute with your neighbour. If you do you are breaking the law and could be prosecuted. Find out more in our party wall agreement guide and, if you need further advice, contact a party wall surveyor.

A Party Wall Agreement is a must-have for anyone starting a project that affects an adjoining property.

In recent years the planning rules for extensions have been significantly relaxed but even homes that are extended under Permitted Development rights will still potentially need a Party Wall Agreement.

A downside to this relaxed regime is that neighbours may no longer receive notification in advance from planners alerting them to proposed extensions next door. This is where the Party Wall Act comes into play.

Find out below if your project will need a Party Wall Agreements and, if so, how to go about notifying neighbours and maintaining a good relationship.

What are Party Wall Agreements?

“Party Wall Agreements ensure that your neighbour doesn’t suffer loss or damage to their property due to your project, and lets them limit disturbance by influencing working hours and access” explains director of content Michael Holmes.

One reason why the Party Wall Act is such a serious issue is because poorly executed structural alterations are a common cause of cracking and movement, and have even, on occasion, been implicated in the collapse of adjoining buildings.

The Act and the agreement are in place to protect neighbouring properties and any disputes that may occur when work is carried out.

When Do I Need a Party Wall Agreement?

The first step you must take before carrying out any physical construction onsite is to serve the adjoining owner(s) with a formal written notice, known as a Party Wall Agreement.

This normally needs to be actioned a couple of months before work begins (in some cases one month is sufficient, but the more notice you can provide the better).

Although this initial notice can be submitted on your behalf by appointing a solicitor or surveyor, it’s often better to retain control at this preliminary stage.

The best approach is to first talk to your neighbours about your proposed extension to put their minds at rest before you or your surveyor issues the required notice.

The boundary lines marked on these illustrations show how the adjoining party wall separates a semi-detached house (left) and a terraced house (right) (Image credit: Future)

If your neighbours are tenants or leaseholders you will also need to notify the freeholder or landlord.

Another good reason for making the initial approach yourself is that lawyers specialising in this area will generally advise adjoining owners not to give consent to a party wall notice, so that even where the neighbour is perfectly happy with your proposals they may be persuaded to act in a way that seems uncooperative.

This is because if the consenting neighbour subsequently needed to engage a surveyor to protect their position they’d have to pay the surveyor’s fee (if they don’t consent, the person extending has to pay).

Is it a Legal Requirement to Have a Party Wall Agreement?

“If your proposed project includes works to a shared party wall or structure, you are required by law to serve notice on all affected neighbours at least two months before work starts,” says Michael Holmes.

Below are some of the projects you will most likely need a Party Wall Agreement before starting work:

1. Building foundations: if excavation is within a distance of 3m from the adjoining property, or where your new trench is deeper than their existing foundations.

2. Loft conversions: if you need to rest a new structural beam within the party wall when converting your loft.

3. Building an extension or a new wall: if you build right up to or astride the garden boundary wall or alter a party wall when building an extension.

4. Adding a basement: if you’re digging deep foundations, are underpinning the party wall or need to cut into the party wall to insert beams.

5. Removing a chimney stack: if your chimney stack is shared with a neighbour as masonry you cut away will form part of the party wall.

Can You Do a Party Wall Agreement Yourself?

If your project is covered by the Act, a Party Wall Notice can be served to neighbours yourself, or using a Party Wall Surveyor (more on which below).

Perhaps surprisingly, it doesn’t have to be an official legal document, although it must include certain key information along with drawings and details of the work.

The precise forms you need to issue will depend on the type of work you want to carry out. You can download appropriate Party Wall Notice forms online.

You give the Notice with a letter setting out your intentions, sent to all the owners of every neighbouring property affected.

A sample letter is included within this Party Wall Act booklet.

Remember to include all the key information, including:

the date the Notice is served
the date work will start
all parties’ names and addresses
a description of the proposed work

If you don’t do this, your Notice will be invalid.

Can a Party Wall Agreement be Verbal?

A verbal Party Wall Agreement will not be recognised as the official Party Wall Act has not been served. Consent or disapproval will need to be confirmed in writing ,although if your neighbours don’t reply within the given timeframe, you are free to continue construction work.

How Much Does a Party Wall Agreement Cost?

For a straightforward job outside London with an adjoining owner dissenting to the works, fees are likely to be in the region of £1,000-2,000 plus VAT.

Fees will depend on the nature and complexity of the work being undertaken as well as the number of adjoining owners. And it is not always the case that the person instigating the work will pay all parties’ fees.

To get an accurate quote, consult a RICS accredited surveyor. It’s also worth consulting them if you have had a Party Wall Notice served on you.

Is a Party Wall Notice Mandatory?

If things turn sour with your neighbour and they suspect that the work being carried out will adversely affect their home, they can seek a court injunction to stop you from continuing.

If you haven’t obeyed the Act and you cause major damage to your neighbour’s property, the judge can award compensation for any loss or damage resulting from the works, including legal costs.

An approved Notice is the only way to prevent this.

How Long Does a Party Wall Agreement Take?

If you are excavating near a neighbouring building then you need to give at least one month’s notice.

Once the neighbours have been served with the notice they then have 14 days to respond on the acknowledgement form included with the original notice.

Once complete, present this, together with a copy of the Act and explanatory booklet, to your neighbour two months before starting.

Your neighbour will have 14 days to provide written approval or rejection. Let them know a template is available for both options in the explanatory booklet.

Then the following happens:

If they approve, your Notice will be valid for a year to complete work
If they reject or do not respond within 14 days, then you’re deemed to be in dispute

What Happens if the Neighbours Object?

Should they disagree, or simply not bother to reply, the law deems this as non-consent and that a ‘dispute’ has arisen.

The Act then provides a process for the dispute to be resolved. It’s important to note that the adjoining owners cannot legally prevent the proposed building work from taking place because, for example, they don’t like the idea of an extension next door, since this is a planning issue.

The only situations where they can actually prevent the construction work from proceeding is where an extension needs ‘special foundations’ such as piles.

In this example the neighbours could refuse outright, potentially scuppering the project.

They are also allowed to refuse construction of what would become a new party wall if it’s actually located on their garden boundary.

How Do I Get a Party Wall Award?

If approval is impossible, then you will have to assign an ‘agreed surveyor’ or two surveyors to prepare a Party Wall Award.

This ‘Award’ covers:

the work that can be carried out
how the works will proceed
timings
measures for preventing damage
the payment of surveyors’ fees
the current condition of both properties
most importantly, costs payable to the adjoining owner if damage occurs

When a neighbour’s consent can’t be obtained the next step is normally to find a party wall surveyor.

You’re allowed to appoint a single ‘agreed surveyor’ to act jointly for both property owners because legally a party wall surveyor has to act as an impartial independent expert rather than as the agent for the client who appointed them

The main concern is whether the people offering these services are sufficiently qualified and experienced. Some may not be ‘proper’ RICS Chartered Surveyors (anyone can call themselves a ‘surveyor’).

Furthermore, party wall work is a complex specialist field and only a minority of chartered surveyors carry out this work.

So search specifically for party wall surveyors, for example on Right Survey.

It’s worth noting that experienced practitioners specialising in this area are often members of the quaintly named ‘Pyramus and Thisbe Club’.

What Does a Party Wall Surveyor Do?

In short, party wall surveyors help mitigate risk to all parties, and ensure that projects can progress without delay.

If you correctly serve notice on your neighbours and damage occurs, any disputes over that damage will be dealt with by surveyors rather than at common law.

What if There is Still a Dispute?

If you’re on good terms with your neighbours there’s every chance they will accept what you’re proposing.

It goes without saying that the resulting expense, disruption, and possible contractual issues caused by having to stop work can be debilitating, hence the importance of complying with the legislation from the outset.

If your neighbour doesn’t receive the required advance legal notification and then one fine day encounters builders excavating alongside their boundary they can apply for an injunction to stop work.

This can be done very quickly by lodging a claim in the County Court.

The injunction will then be served on the owner of the property being extended, ordering work on site to stop, with a date in court fixed so both sides can put their case.

Normally the errant building owner will acknowledge in court that they’ve failed to comply with the Party Wall Act, and must give a written undertaking that they will henceforth comply, with the retrospective appointment of party wall surveyor(s) to issue an Award.
