SCHEDULE OF CONDITION

FROM £450

​

• When we inspect the Adjoining Owners home (your neighbours) we make a detailed report of the existing condition of the property that could potentially be affected by the work, taking careful note of any existing damage or cracks. The reason for doing this is so that claims cannot be made afterwards that the proposed building works are responsible for pre-existing defects to your neighbours property.

​

• A Schedule of Condition Report will then be prepared in duplicate, one for you and one for your neighbour. This includes references to the photographs held on file and a detailed description of the current condition of the property.

​

• We offer a reduced fee if more than one Schedule of Condition is required and is able to be carried out on the same day.

​

• PLEASE NOTE : Without a  Schedule of Condition it is very difficult to defend a claim that the building works have caused damage to the adjoining property (or properties)!

Special Offer

Agreed Surveyor

If your neighbour "Dissents to the Work" you are then deemed to be ‘in dispute’ and a single Party Wall Surveyor, otherwise known as an ‘Agreed Surveyor’ can be appointed, in accordance with the Act. With this option we would be appointed to act impartially for both parties as the Agreed Surveyor. 

As the Agreed Surveyor, we would prepare a legal document called a Party Wall Award which provides a binding framework to ensure the works covered by the Act are planned to be carried out in a diligent way and give a means of recourse if problems occur.

The Award settles the ‘dispute’ in a way that protects both owners’ interests, but still enables the works to proceed in a reasonable time frame.

A Schedule of Condition would be carried out with this option automatically.​
