When planning construction work that involves a shared or boundary wall, you may need to hire a party wall surveyor to comply with the Party Wall Act 1996. But how much does a party wall surveyor cost, and what factors influence the price? Here’s a quick breakdown to help you budget for your project.
Average Costs of a Party Wall Surveyor
Party wall surveyor fees can vary widely depending on the complexity of the project and the location. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between £700 and £1,500 for a typical party wall agreement. However, costs can be higher if multiple properties or complex issues are involved.
Key Factors Affecting the Cost
1. Type of Surveyor: If both parties agree on a single surveyor (an “agreed surveyor”), costs are typically lower. However, if each party appoints their own surveyor, the costs can double.
2. Complexity of the Project: Larger projects, such as extensions or basement excavations, may require more detailed assessments, increasing the surveyor’s fees.
3. Location: Surveyor fees may vary based on the region, with costs often higher in major cities like London.
