Our fees start from:
– Adjoining owner Surveyor £600
– Building Owner Surveyor £800
– Agreed Surveyor £1000
All prices are subject to VAT and may alter depending on complexity and location of the award. We are also able to offer our party wall surveyor services for the serving of appropriate notices and plan checking. Please call our Rye based party wall surveyor specialists for informed and impartial advice.
You may consent to your neighbour’s works. However, it is always prudent to have what is termed a Schedule of Condition of the areas of your property that are likely to be affected by the works.
This will give you a record of the condition of your property prior to works commencing and a point of reference in the event of any damage.
We can normally undertake this for a fee of £400 plus VAT and copies are given to both parties. It is not unreasonable in these circumstances for the person undertaking the works to pay for the Schedule of Condition. It also protects them from contentious claims.
Our Rye based surveyors have experience in party wall matters across Sussex, Hastings, Maidstone and South London. To find out more, please email us using the contact form.
