What we do

Are you a Client or Client’s representative? Will your proposals require the following types of work:

- Constructing a building or a boundary wall up to or astride the boundary line?
- Raising, lowering, cutting into or underpinning a boundary wall or party wall?
If the answer is ‘yes’ to one or all of the above works, there is a statutory requirement that you follow a strict process set out in the Party Wall etc. Act, 1996.
