What is a Surveyor?
A surveyor is a highly skilled property professional who specialises in assessing, inspecting, and advising on all matters relating to land and buildings. Their role often combines technical knowledge with legal understanding to help homeowners and landlords navigate any property-related problems.
At Stokemont, our surveyors offer a comprehensive range of services. So if you’re planning an extension, selling your home, or addressing a boundary concern, we’re here to ensure every step is handled with expert attention.
When it comes to Party Wall Surveying, in particular, our role is to ensure that both Building owners and Adjoining Owners are properly represented and protected under the Party Wall Act 1996. This legislation governs construction on or near shared walls, boundaries, and structures.
The Surveyor’s job is to ensure legal procedures are followed, and notices are properly served. With their help, any dispute is resolved professionally and impartially.

When should you hire a Surveyor in Kingston?
There are certain key situations when hiring a surveyor becomes essential to avoid risks and protect your investments. If you’re in Kingston, here are some of the most common scenarios where our assistance is required.- Planning Home Extensions or Renovations – If you’re planning to carry out work on your property, particularly close to a shared wall, then you may need to serve a Party Wall Notice. A Party Wall Surveyor ensures that this is done in full accordance with the law. We help draft and serve the correct notices, handle any disputes, and put in place a Party Wall Award where necessary. This protects your project from future delays and legal complications.
- Noticed Building Works Next Door – If your neighbour has begun construction, and you’ve either received a Party Wall Notice or discovered work has started without one, you have the right to appoint your own Surveyor. This is a common reason why adjoining owners contact us. We’ll represent your interests and carry out the needed inspections. This ensures your property is safeguarded from damage or negligence through accurate documentation and fair dispute resolution.
- Buying, Selling, or Leasing a Property – Before finalising a property purchase or entering into a lease agreement, it’s wise to commission a professional survey. Our RICS-registered surveyors offer detailed reports that highlight existing issues, structural concerns, and potential future maintenance needs. This information gives you the peace of mind to proceed with confidence, or renegotiate terms if needed.
