BASEMENTS

With the ever upward movement of property prices and the expansion of family size, many building owners are now looking at extending their property downward to create additional living space in the form of a basement. In respect of terrace and semi-detached houses, new basement work almost invariably falls within the scope of the party wall act. This often also applies to detached properties as a result to the depth of excavation involved.

This type of work requires skilled and experienced party wall surveyors to carefully and expertly regulate matters between the parties ensuring that the necessary protections and rights are afforded the parties. We are regularly appointed as party wall surveyor in these circumstances.
