If you’re lucky enough to have a property in Southgate, then you are sure to want to make it perfect, and this can often include having something done to change the property. This is great, however you will need to be careful if any of the work is going to involve something to do with a party wall. This is a wall that is shared by one or more neighbour  and you will have the party wall agreement Southgate property owners must have before going ahead and doing this kind of work.

It is important that you take your time to read through this agreement before you go ahead and do anything, as this will mean that you will know exactly what it is that you’re permitted to do with the wall, and whether you have to tell your neighbor that you’re doing it or not. If you’re not sure, then it’s always better to be safe than sorry, as there’s always the chance that any work done could be contested at a later date if it wasn’t given in writing to your neighbor. So, take a look at your agreement and see where you stand, as it will make things much easier in the future.
