Ever wondered what a Party Wall Surveyor actually does, or what you need to know before having a Party Wall Survey carried out?
Over the coming weeks, we have been sharing our Party Wall Guide — a simple, clear and practical resource designed to help homeowners, neighbours and developers understand the process, their rights, and what to expect at each stage.
Whether you’re planning an extension, starting a new build, or just want to feel more confident about the Party Wall process, our guide will give you everything you need to move forward with clarity and peace of mind.
🔹 Part 4 – What does a Party Wall Award contain?
While each Award is tailored to individual circumstances, common clauses include:
· Details of the Proposed works: scope, method, and drawings.
· Working hours: when noisy or disruptive work may be carried out.
· Access rights: when surveyors, contractors, or builders may enter the neighbour’s land.
· Schedule of Condition: baseline evidence to protect both sides.
· Damage provisions: clauses covering responsibility for repairs and making good.
· Cost allocation: who pays surveyors’ fees and any remedial works following damage
· Dispute resolution: how variations or disagreements will be handled.
