Party Wall Advice for Owners of Properties in Hampstead
Our team of specialist party wall surveyors have been advising owners in Hampstead 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 Hampstead. Call today to take advantage of our expertise.

About Hampstead
Hampstead unfolds as a haven of sophistication, where the echoes of literary musings and natural grandeur harmonise. This retreat sits gracefully between the eclectic charisma of Camden Town and the urban subtleties of Cricklewood, crafting a delicate balance that defines its distinct character.
Transport arteries gracefully connect Hampstead to its bustling neighbours, ensuring a seamless integration into the city’s pulse and making it an oasis easily accessible to those seeking respite from the city’s hustle.
Hampstead Heath, a sprawling tapestry of rolling meadows and ancient woodlands, unfolds as the crown jewel of this enclave. The heath, with its panoramic views of the city, becomes a sanctuary for locals and visitors alike. Tranquil ponds and meandering paths beckon those in search of a peaceful escape, adding an idyllic touch to Hampstead’s allure.
In the annals of literary history, Hampstead bears the imprints of romantic poets who sought inspiration in its leafy lanes. Keats, Shelley, and Byron found solace amidst its idyllic landscapes, their verses intertwining with the rustling leaves.
