What are the Party Wall
Surveying Procedures?

The Party Wall etc Act 1996 governs 3 particular types of construction work and covers all properties within England and Wales and provides a protective legal framework to the owners a party to the construction work.

Surveyor Review

The Party Wall Surveyor will review the proposed construction works from the perspective of the adjoining owner’s property ensuring they have a full and thorough understanding of all of the risks associated with the works.

Schedule of Condition Inspection & Report

The Party Wall Surveyor will visit the site and undertake a Schedule of Condition Report of the adjoining owner’s property thereby ensuring there is a robust condition record and report in place in advance of the construction works commencing.

Agreement of a Legal Party Wall Award

Once the Party Wall Surveyor has undertaken full review of the property owner’s construction works and considered all risk and procedural aspects of the work, he or she will then move onto the agreement of the Party Wall Award.

The Party Wall Award governs the work and importantly provides protection above and beyond common law.

Post Construction Work Inspection

Post Construction Work, the Party Wall Surveyor will undertake a further inspection and visit of the neighbouring owner’s property, to check off the original record taken and establish if there has been any issue or damage resulting from the works.

Free Party Wall Advice

Construction works of any type can be a stressful and confusing time.

Whether you are the building owner undertaking the works, or the adjoining owner who neighbours them, getting clear and concise information can often be difficult.

Pik Kwan Vivien Chan

I am a returning client of Stokemont, which is a professional company that delivered a thorough level 3 full house survey report. Surveyor Seyi did a great job and exceeded my expectations; the report is comprehensive and offered good advice. I would recommend Stokemont to my friends.

David Myers

I used Stokemont to undertake party wall surveys on my neighbours addresses and I found them to be really professional. Bradley regularly kept me up to date with information and next steps and answered any queries in timely manner too. Everything including costs etc were clearly set out so I couldn’t ask for anymore from start to finish. Highly recommend and price wise were cheaper than a number of surveyors I enquired with.

Alero Awala

Really happy I went with Stokemont for my survey. Seyi was fantastic. My report was really detailed and will help me with not only prioritisation of fixes to implement but also the regular maintenance of my new property. I really recommend.

Evelina Vorontsova

I hired Stokemont for a full Level 3 building survey on a flat I was purchasing in London. The turnaround was very quick and the report was extremely detailed — covering everything from minor cosmetic issues to more significant defects. Seyi flagged a gas supply issue that turned out to be significant, and without the survey I would not have known about it or been able to negotiate appropriate protection before exchange. As a first-time buyer I found the report really helpful and would strongly recommend Stokemont to anyone purchasing a property.

Permeela A

I was extremely happy with Stokemont who organinsed a party wall award for me. They were very quick and efficient and made the whole process stress free. I would definitely highly recommend their services, very professional and good communications throughout. I found their help and support invaluable.

Phil Moore

Very efficient and friendly. I highly recommend.

Geoffrey Scammell

We would thoroughly recommend Stokemont to anybody requiring a boundary determination report. Having had a very poor experience with another firm of surveyors who promised a report in 10 days, but only managed an error-filled report in 30 days, Seyi Omogbehin promised a report within 5 days and delivered a very thorough, highly professional report within 2 days. Stokemont, and Seyi in particular provided an excellent service from start to finish.
