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. Havering coverage extends from Romford and Hornchurch through Upminster and Elm Park to Rainham and Harold Wood. Town centre commercial work and infill projects often pair with rights of light assessments where works affect neighbouring window levels.
Step two is notice drafting and service, managing adjoining owner responses, and preparing a detailed schedule of condition with photographs and full written notes covering external and internal areas. Step three handles the party wall award where dispute arises, or proportionate paperwork where the matter is agreed without dispute. The named surveyor stays on the file throughout. Building owners and adjoining owners across Havering get continuity from first contact through to the 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 fees on both sides. For Havering projects, particularly suburban extensions affecting close neighbours and Romford commercial work, an early free initial assessment reduces risk on both sides.
