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. Richmond upon Thames coverage extends from Richmond and Twickenham through Teddington to East Sheen, Hampton and Kew. Many basement and extension projects also pair with rights of light assessments at the planning design stage.


After the assessment the surveyor drafts and serves the statutory notices, manages adjoining owner responses, and produces a detailed schedule of condition with photographs and full written notes. For Richmond Hill conservation property and Georgian or Victorian stock the schedule includes additional detail on materials, decorative features, and any visible defects. Where the matter is agreed paperwork stays proportionate. Where dispute arises the party wall award is drafted properly and served. Building owners and adjoining owners across Richmond upon Thames get continuity throughout.
For Richmond upon Thames properties, where basement digs and conservation work are common, awards often include detailed structural review and monitoring proposals appropriate to listed or period property. Notice periods under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 are fixed: two months for party structure works and one month for excavations. The building owner generally covers reasonable fees on both sides.
