We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Peter Barry. We came to them when stuck in a slow Party Wall process with another surveyor and an fast approaching deadline as we wanted to start work on our property in time to finish before December. The Peter Barry team were phenomenal. Callum's knowledge was fantastic and he advised us effectively every step of the way, while Trina was highly responsive and a delight to work with. We were delighted with the experience and would recommend Peter Barry to anyone needing support with a Party Wall Award.
