Protecting your home, your project, and your neighbourly relationships

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is a legal requirement that protects both you and your neighbour when building works affect a shared wall, boundary, or structure. If you’re planning an extension, loft conversion, chimney removal, or any work close to a boundary, the Act sets out a simple process you must follow before starting. It ensures everyone is properly notified, potential risks are assessed, and agreements are recorded so the project can move forward safely and without dispute.

Founder of Resolve Party Wall Surveyors, Scott provides clear, independent party wall advice that supports building progress while recognising the interests of all parties.

Scott is a full member of the Faculty of Party Wall Surveyors and brings a practical, well-rounded perspective to every instruction. The focus is simple: to keep projects moving, ensure compliance, and protect the position of everyone involved.
