Party Wall Surveyor Ealing – Expert Notices, Awards & Local Advice

Local Party Wall Specialists Serving Ealing & Conservation Areas

If you’re planning a home extension, loft conversion, basement project, or boundary work in Ealing, you must comply with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. This law protects property owners and neighbours when construction affects shared walls, boundaries, or nearby structures.

At MET Surveyors, we’re trusted Party Wall Surveyors in Ealing, offering tailored services for period homes, modern builds, and properties in Ealing’s many conservation areas. We ensure your project stays compliant, neighbourly, and stress-free—so you can focus on the build, not the bureaucracy.

Understanding the Party Wall Act

If your works affect a shared wall or boundary, the law requires:

Formal Party Wall Notices: Sent to affected neighbours at least one or two months before work begins.
Neighbour Responses: Neighbours can consent, dissent, or stay silent (which counts as dissent).
Party Wall Awards: If dissent occurs, surveyors draft a legally binding agreement to protect both parties.

Typical works that require a Party Wall process include:

Loft conversions and roof alterations
Rear and side home extensions
Garden and boundary walls
Basement digs and underpinning
Renovations involving party structures or chimneys
