What is Party Wall DIY

Party Wall DIY is a web based party wall notice generator that lets you generate your own party wall notices.

Do you plan to do works on your property? A loft conversion? A chimney breast removal? A rear extension? If that is the case, you will have duties and responsibilities under the Party Wall etc Act 1996. The act is all about preventing and resolving disputes in relation to party walls.

As the building owner, you are required under the act to serve the appropriate party wall notices to your neighbours (your adjoining owners). This is traditionally part of the job of a party wall surveyor. However, the law does not prevent you from producing these documents yourself. As a result you can save some money on party wall surveyor fees.

Within Party Wall DIY, we have a number of party wall templates for all the most common types of works. You will be taken through the process step by step. The system will automatically populate the correct template for your particular situation. By answering a few simple questions within the tool about the works you are undertaking, you will be able to generate your own party wall notices in compliance with the act.

If you have any questions at any stage of the process, you can request a call back. One of our experts will be happy to assist you and advise on what you need to do.
