Q18. For your Project do you require a party wall notice?
*
If the proposed construction or renovation work is within 3 metres of your neighbour's property, a party wall notice will be required for your project.
If you intend on placing a steel beam into a shared boundary wall, or structure with an adjacent property, a party wall notice will be required for your project.
This is to inform the adjoining property owner(s) about the intended works and seek their consent or agreement.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is a UK legislation that outlines the procedures and requirements for carrying out construction work that may affect party walls, boundary walls, and excavations near neighbouring properties.
Compliance with this act is mandatory, and serving a party wall notice is a legal obligation in certain circumstances.
The party wall notice serves as a formal communication to the neighbouring property owner(s), ensuring that their rights are protected during the construction process.
It allows them to raise concerns, request additional safeguards, or appoint a party wall surveyor if necessary.
By providing a party wall notice, the client aims to establish clear communication and transparency with the neighbouring property owner(s).
This helps in preventing potential disputes that may arise due to the construction work and encourages a cooperative approach to resolve any concerns or issues.
Serving a party wall notice demonstrates the client's commitment to adhering to legal requirements and maintaining positive relationships with neighbours. It provides reassurance to both the client and the adjoining property owner(s) that the project will be carried out responsibly and with due consideration for their interests.

Q19. Would you like Architecture North Ltd to serve a notice to your neighbor requesting temporary access for your construction project?
*
Temporary access refers to the permission granted to the client and/or your construction team to access your neighbouring property, or area temporarily for the purpose of carrying out construction-related activities.
This access is typically required when the construction project directly affects or involves the neighbouring property or when it is necessary to ensure the smooth progress of the project.
During temporary access, the client and/or their contractors may need to cross or utilise a portion of the neighbouring property to carry out tasks such as:
1. Scaffolding installation and maintenance.
2. Demolition or excavation work.
3. Transporting construction materials or equipment.
4. Installation of utilities or services that require access through the neighbouring property
5. Repair or maintenance work that requires entry to the neighboring property.
6. Any other specific activities related to the construction project that involves the neighbouring property
Temporary access is typically sought with the consent and cooperation of the neighbour, and it may be facilitated through formal agreements or notices served to ensure legal compliance and protection of both parties' interests.
The access is temporary in nature and limited to the duration of the construction project, after which the property is restored to its original condition.
