When Do You Need a Party Wall Notice?

Expert Services for Your Home and Business Dorchester

1. Work on Party Walls:

If your neighbor's extension involves work on a wall that is shared between your properties, such as a wall that stands on the boundary line, you are typically required to serve a party wall notice.

2. Excavation Near Boundaries:

If the construction work involves excavating near the boundary line, even if not directly on it, it might still fall under the purview of the Party Wall Act.

3. New Walls and Extensions:

The Act also covers scenarios where your neighbor intends to build a new wall on their property or extend an existing wall up to or astride the boundary line.
