|
| The Party Wall etc Act 1996 imposes a duty on any building owner, occupier or developer to follow a specific procedure when carrying out building work that involves disruption to a party wall or party fence wall, or where new foundations are proposed within 3 or 6 metres of an adjoining building. |
|
| The Act can be complex and confusing and therefore it is essential that advice is sought from a professional. The procedures include formal notification of the works to a neighbour prior to work commencing and agreement of schedules of condition. An 'Award' document will cover the specifics of the proposed works and how the 'building owner' (or person proposing to carry out the works) will ensure that damage and unreasonable disturbance does not affect the 'adjoining owner' or neighbour. |
|
| Similarly, Nicholls Partnership can provide advice on boundary disputes, rights of light issues and crane over-sailing agreements. By reference to published guidance, legislative documents and an extensive experience of this type of work over a number of years, we can provide proactive and impartial advice to any building owner or neighbour for both residential and large commercial or industrial developments throughout the UK. |
