Question

In light of Kaye v Lawrence can the panel give some examples of the types of work to a residential property that would constitute a reasonable request for Security for Expenses in accordance with Section 12 of the Act?

This is another question that was raised at a recent FPWS North London forum meeting which I helped to organise. I would welcome the views of other surveyors. If you are a surveyor involved in party wall matters and would like to attend future meetings please email me at justin.burns@peterbarry.co.uk and I’ll keep you updated.

Excellent service - prompt, professional and competitively priced.
We found Peter Barry Surveyors via an AI search as we needed a party wall surveyor for a rather complex party wall rebuilding issue. Jaynell Mainoo handled our case and we are extremely happy with the service and the efficiency. We will definitely ask for Jaynell again if needed.
I recently used Peter Barry to help me secure party wall agreements from my two neighbours, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. They guided me through the entire process, answered all my questions promptly, and made what I expected to be a stressful experience completely hassle-free. Thanks to their expertise and excellent communication, both agreements were obtained quickly and without any issues. I highly recommend Peter Barry to anyone needing party wall support—you’ll be in great hands!
