The practice has an established Hampshire presence and is RICS regulated, with surveyors carrying over 30 years of combined residential extension and rooftop experience. Rights of light assessments often run alongside airspace work where new height affects surrounding seafront properties or dense suburban streets.
On rooftop additions to town-centre mid-rise blocks and seafront mansion blocks, the existing occupants liaison role becomes the central piece. We make initial contact with each leaseholder, attend meetings to discuss concerns, prepare Schedules of Condition for the flats directly below the new units, and act as the named point of contact through construction. Day-to-day matters, scaffolding, deliveries, parking, access, get handled as they arise, with party wall services running on the building itself.
Airspace work in Poole typically sits alongside daylight and sunlight, rights of light, and party wall workstreams on the same scheme. The same surveyor stays on the project from instruction to handover.
Planning sits with Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council, which reviews airspace proposals on design, height, neighbour amenity, parking, and area character. Conservation area constraints apply on parts of the seafront and around the old town. Some upward extensions in the suburbs fall within permitted development with prior approval. A free initial assessment covers feasibility and the supporting workstreams on a specific site.
