CHP Surveyors has been established since 2004 with offices in Wickford, London and Hampshire. Our London head office at Boundary Row in SE1 is RICS regulated and delivers specialist chartered surveying on dense urban sites with technical depth. Kingston upon Thames coverage extends from Kingston town and Surbiton through Norbiton to Tolworth, New Malden and Chessington. Many basement and extension projects also pair with rights of light assessments at the planning design stage.


Step two is notice drafting and service, managing adjoining owner responses, and producing a detailed schedule of condition with photographs and full written notes. Step three handles the party wall award where dispute arises, or proportionate paperwork where the matter is fully agreed without dispute. The named surveyor stays on the file throughout. Building owners and adjoining owners across Kingston upon Thames get continuity from instruction to final document.
Notice periods under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 are fixed at two months for party structure works and one month for excavations within the relevant proximity thresholds. The building owner generally covers reasonable surveyor fees on both sides. For Kingston upon Thames projects, particularly basement digs in conservation areas and large terrace extensions, an early free initial assessment at the design stage reduces risk on both sides.
