CHP Surveyors has been established since 2004 and operates from offices in Wickford, London and Hampshire. The team is RICS regulated, with an established Hampshire presence delivering party wall work across the city and surrounding boroughs. Local coverage extends to Eastleigh, Totton, Hedge End, West End and Bishopstoke. Larger commercial schemes near the docks often need airspace development advice alongside the party wall work.
After the assessment the surveyor drafts and serves the statutory notices, manages adjoining owner responses, and produces a schedule of condition with photographs and detailed written notes covering external and internal areas. Where the matter is agreed the paperwork stays proportionate. Where dispute arises the party wall award is drafted properly and served. Calls stay with the named surveyor running the file. Building owners and adjoining owners across Southampton get continuity throughout the entire process.
Southampton projects often run on tight programmes, particularly extensions started before summer and student property conversions ahead of the autumn term. Getting notice timing right protects the schedule, avoids invalid awards, and reduces the risk of injunction proceedings. The building owner generally covers reasonable surveyor fees on both sides under the Act.
