I am carrying out works at my property. Do I need to notify my neighbour in respect of The Party Wall etc Act 1996?
If you are carrying out work close to your neighbour’s property you may have a legal obligation to notify them in respect of the Party Wall etc Act 1996. The Act gives you rights and responsibilities whichever side of the ‘wall’ you are on, whether you or your neighbour is doing the work. The Act does not affect any requirement for Planning Permission or Building Regulations approval.
