Edgware Party Wall Surveyors

If you are planning to carry out building works in Edgware that may impact an adjoining property, it is important to understand your responsibilities under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. Whether you are planning an extension, a loft conversion, or any structural alterations close to a boundary, Hudson Party Wall Surveyors can provide the support you need.

We offer impartial advice and a full range of party wall services to building owners, adjoining owners, and developers throughout Edgware and surrounding areas. Our aim is to help you comply with the Act, avoid disputes, and proceed with your project confidently.

Do I Need a Party Wall Surveyor in Edgware?

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies to certain types of building work where the structure, boundary, or proximity to neighbouring property is a factor. This includes:

• Rear and side extensions
• Loft conversions involving structural support within a shared wall
• Excavation for new foundations near another property
• Alterations to or rebuilding of shared garden walls
• Internal works that affect the party wall structure or layout

If the Act applies to your project, you will need to serve a Party Wall Notice to the adjoining owner(s). If they do not consent, a Party Wall Award will be required before you can proceed. We manage the process on your behalf from start to finish.

Property Types in Edgware and Why Party Wall Matters Are Common

Edgware, located in the London Borough of Barnet, features a broad mix of 1930s and mid-century semis, Victorian terraces, post-war maisonettes, and modern apartments, particularly around the town centre and Broadfields Estate. Many of these properties are positioned close together, often with shared boundary walls or footings.

As a result, even relatively modest works—such as a loft conversion or single-storey extension—can affect adjoining structures. With older homes especially, it is important to ensure nearby properties are protected, and that your project follows the correct procedures under the Act.
