Excellent service, would highly recommend. Richard made the party wall process pain free with both my neighbours happy with the agreements which were drawn up. Chiswick W4

Richard is a very professional and supportive expert. We have received lots of really helpful advice from the company and as such we feel assured we are carrying out our works appropriately. He is really friendly and puts complicated legal jargon into a laypersons language! I would most definitely use Hourican & Associates again and would not hesitate to recommend them to all. Thank you Richard!

We were extremely impressed with the service provided by Hourican Associates. We needed a Schedule of Condition completed to a tight deadline. Richard and his team were able to squeeze us in last minute to accommodate the project. Very professional and competitively priced service. I would highly recommend.

I would thoroughly recommend H&A having been referred by the company who are doing my loft conversion, about an unusual party wall matter. Richard was very helpful, professional and knowledgeable and willing to give some free, solid advice. A rarity these days! Should I need the services of a surveyor again in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate to use them and would I’d recommend wholeheartedly to others.

Excellent experience working with Richard. He was highly knowledgeable, gave clear and practical advice, and made the whole process feel straightforward. What really stood out was his incredibly fast response time, always quick to reply and very easy to work with. Richard took the time to walk us through all our options around the boundary wall, explaining exactly what we could and couldn’t do without unnecessary jargon. His guidance was practical, balanced, and gave us real confidence in how to proceed. Would highly recommend!

Richard Hourican was excellent in handling the party wall matters for our new build. Communication was great throughout and everything was handled efficiently, which made the whole process much less stressful. Would highly recommend!

Richard and his team acted as party wall surveyor on our renovation/extension project in Richmond. They have been on the ball, polite, very good with neighbours (2 out of the 3 neighbours accepted them as surveyors), and efficient at closing out the Awards. The Awards are comprehensive and clear. Fees are very fair.

Richard was a great recommendation and went above and beyond to arrange complex party wall agreements for both sets of neighbours. He worked well with our border team as plans changed and then came together and was highly professional and collaborative. Arranged monitoring and liaised and communicated with everyone smoothly. Would be a great addition to any building project.
