Party Wall Surveyors in Borehamwood

If you are planning to carry out building works in Borehamwood, it is important to understand your legal obligations under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. Whether you are constructing a rear extension, converting a loft, or excavating near neighbouring foundations, the Act is likely to apply.

At Hudson Party Wall Surveyors, we offer impartial, expert advice and a complete range of party wall services for property owners, developers, and adjoining neighbours throughout Borehamwood and the surrounding area. We help you remain compliant, avoid costly delays, and preserve neighbourly relations during construction.


Do I Need a Party Wall Surveyor in Borehamwood?

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 exists to protect the rights of both the building owner undertaking the work and any affected adjoining owners. It applies to many common types of domestic and commercial building projects, including:

  • Extensions to the rear or side of a property
  • Loft conversions involving structural beams or dormers
  • Excavations within three or six metres of a neighbouring structure
  • Work to shared boundary or garden walls
  • Internal alterations that affect a party wall or floor

If your proposed works fall within these categories, you are required to serve a formal Party Wall Notice. If consent is not granted, a Party Wall Award must be agreed before work can legally commence.


Understanding Borehamwood’s Housing Profile

Borehamwood is a varied and well-established residential area within the borough of Hertsmere in Hertfordshire. The town features a mix of 1930s semi-detached homes, post-war terraces, and a growing number of modern developments and apartment blocks, particularly near Elstree & Borehamwood Station.

This diversity means that construction work often affects shared party walls, close neighbouring structures, or adjoining foundations. Older properties, in particular, may be more sensitive to nearby excavation or structural changes. As a result, party wall procedures are especially relevant in this area—both for safeguarding your investment and protecting neighbouring buildings.
