Party Wall Surveyor in Fulham


If you’re planning a home extension, basement excavation or renovation in Fulham, you may need to comply with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. The Act exists to prevent disputes between neighbours when work is carried out on or near shared walls or boundaries.

At Harding Chartered Surveyors Fulham, our experienced party wall surveyors in Fulham guide you through every step of the process — from serving notices and recording schedules of condition to preparing legally binding party wall awards. We help homeowners, landlords and developers across Fulham, Parsons Green, Chelsea and the wider South West London area ensure their projects remain compliant and stress-free.

Understanding the Party Wall Act 1996


The Act provides a clear legal framework for carrying out building works that affect a shared wall, structure or boundary. It protects both the building owner and the adjoining owner, ensuring work proceeds safely and fairly.

You’ll likely need to follow the Party Wall procedure if you are:

  • Building an extension or loft conversion that involves structural work

  • Excavating foundations close to a neighbour’s property

  • Removing internal walls or a chimney breast

  • Underpinning or repairing a shared wall or boundary

Failure to follow the Act can cause delays, additional costs, and even legal action.


Our Party Wall Services in Fulham


We offer a comprehensive service covering all aspects of the Party Wall etc. Act, including:

  • Initial consultation and advice – confirming whether your project falls under the Act and what steps to take.

  • Preparation and service of Party Wall Notices – accurately drafted and issued to adjoining owners.

  • Schedule of Condition Reports – recording the condition of neighbouring properties before works begin.

  • Party Wall Awards – setting out each party’s rights, obligations and access arrangements.

  • Agreed Surveyor Services – acting impartially for both parties, where suitable.

We handle projects of all sizes across Fulham, from basement excavations in Hurlingham to rear extensions near Eel Brook Common.

The snagging survey provided by Harding was very detailed and thorough. This helped us to identify some Safety and Building Regulation compliance issues ahead of completion, along with a general snagging list. Our surveyor, Alaa Ali, did a great job in explaining the issues and providing recommendations. Definitely recommend Harding for surveys.
