CHP Surveyors has been established since 2004 with offices in Wickford, London and Hampshire. The team is RICS regulated and reaches Rochford within 20 minutes via the A127 and A1245. Local coverage extends to Stambridge, Canewdon, Great Wakering, Foulness and Paglesham in the same drive. Larger conservation projects often pair with rights of light assessments where works affect windows on adjoining listed property.
After the assessment the surveyor drafts and serves the statutory notices, manages adjoining owner responses, and produces a thorough schedule of condition with photographs and written notes. For listed and conservation property the schedule includes additional detail on materials and decorative features. Where the matter is agreed paperwork stays proportionate. Where dispute arises the party wall award is drafted properly and served. Calls stay with the same named surveyor from start to finish. Building owners and adjoining owners across Rochford get continuity throughout.
Notice periods under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 are fixed: two months for party structure works, one month for excavations within the three or six metre thresholds. We recommend serving notice three months ahead of works to absorb the response window comfortably. The building owner generally covers reasonable fees on both sides. To discuss a Rochford scheme, including expected timing and likely costs, book a free initial assessment.
