Party Wall Advice for Owners of Properties in Camden Town

Our team of specialist party wall surveyors have been advising owners in Camden Town for decades. Whether we are dealing with an extension that incorporates a wall at the boundary or a loft conversion with a rear dormer, our focus is on finding a fair balance between the building owner’s desire to complete their works as quickly as possible and the need to minimise risk and inconvenience to adjoining owners.

The process starts with the owner who is proposing to undertake work falling within the scope of the Act notifying any affected adjoining owners. Owners can prepare their own notices, but as they must include certain specific information and be served in a particular way, we’re often asked to do that for them.

Below you will find links to the hundreds of positive reviews we’ve received from both building owners and adjoining owners in and around Camden Town. Call today to take advantage of our expertise.

Peter Barry were approached by a potential client who was planning a real extension to his property to the north of Camden, in NW2. He had good relationships with his neighbours, had already made them aware of his proposals and had served them with his own party wall notices.

Whilst we see many examples a very poorly drafted notices which cause more problems they solve, these notices what pretty good and the neighbours had indicated that they would all use the same joint surveyor.
Matthew price MRICS was appointed at the beginning of September, inspected both properties two weeks later and having been provided with the correct drawings and structural information, served the party wall awards by the end of the same month.

About Camden Town

Camden Town stands as a testament to the city’s dynamic spirit, nestled strategically amidst the refined elegance of Hampstead and the eclectic charm of Islington. This enclave, northwest of the city centre, is a cultural crucible where creativity and diversity collide in a symphony of urban life.

The veins of the London Underground converge here, transforming Camden into a bustling nexus accessible to denizens and wanderers alike. The neighbourhood’s connectivity becomes a silent orchestrator, harmonizing the movements of those exploring its streets.

Music reverberates through Camden’s cobbled alleys, as iconic venues like the Roundhouse and Electric Ballroom etch their notes into the district’s vibrant identity. These stages have witnessed the crescendo of musical greats, making Camden synonymous with the pulsating heartbeat of London’s music scene.

No exploration of Camden is complete without a pilgrimage to its beating heart: Camden Market. An expansive bazaar of creativity, the market is a kaleidoscope of colour, sound, and flavour. From vintage treasures to avant-garde crafts, it mirrors Camden’s eclectic spirit, inviting both locals and globetrotters to immerse themselves in its sensory feast.
