Party Wall Act

[Thomo39]

Hi
I'm just wondering if the P.W.A is required in this situation (pic is attached).
Neighbours are fine with the works but I'd like to cover both parties and do it by the book.

The centre of the 2 garages is the boundary wall, we will be extending from the house to 1 meter away from the boundary (side of there external garage)

many thanks

Stephen

Our house is the one on the left of the picture, its a 2 storey extension.
After knocking our garage down I have agreed to make good my neighbours side with new facia and to redo the felt and flashing and guttering to the side of there garage.

I can't find anything online to show a similar project, would I be right to think that the boundary wall will be just 1 single brick?

If the neighbours are fine with the work, you can serve a notice and they can agree, sign it and return it and that's that.

Thanks Woody, is this just something both parties keep for future reference..i.e.. there is no need to get anyone else involved

That's right.

Your obligations and their assurances remain the same whether surveyors get involved or not.

Well, that's refreshing
