Building work in Ealing—like a loft conversion in Acton, a rear extension in South Ealing, or structural alterations in Hanwell—often involves shared walls, close boundaries, or foundations near neighbouring properties. If your works touch any of these, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 may apply. We help you handle the process properly from day one, with clear documentation and calm neighbour communication to keep your project moving.
We cover: Party Wall Notices • Schedules of Condition • Party Wall Awards • Neighbour liaison

Ealing has a strong mix of terraces, semis, conversions, and boundary-tight plots. Extensions, loft steels, and excavation for foundations frequently trigger party wall requirements—especially where properties sit close together or share structural elements.
Typical notifiable works include:
Property owners in Ealing often need clear guidance, quick communication, and surveyors who understand how local homes are laid out. From Victorian and Edwardian terraces to 1930s semis and converted flats, different property types can create different Party Wall issues. We help make the process easier by explaining what is needed, handling the paperwork correctly, and keeping both owners and neighbours informed throughout.
If your planned work falls under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, it helps to know what happens next. We guide clients through each stage so the process feels manageable and clear.
We look at the plans and confirm whether the work is likely to fall under the Party Wall Act.
We confirm who needs to be notified, including freeholders or affected neighbouring owners.
We draft the correct notices and make sure they are served properly and on time.
If neighbours consent, the process is simpler. If they dissent or do not reply, surveyors may need to be appointed.
Where required, we document the condition of the adjoining property before work begins.
Party wall costs in Ealing will depend on the type of work, how many adjoining owners are involved, and whether your neighbour consents or asks for a formal award. For straightforward projects, the process may only involve preparing and serving notices. For larger or more sensitive works such as loft conversions, rear extensions, or excavation near neighbouring foundations, a party wall award and schedule of condition are often recommended.

Yes. If your neighbour dissents to a party wall notice, surveyors can be appointed and the matter is usually resolved through a Party Wall Award rather than stopping the project completely.
