Party wall surveyors in Cheadle
Manchester Party Wall Surveyors provides RICS Chartered party wall surveyors in Cheadle (SK8). We serve notices, act for building owners and neighbours, prepare schedules of condition and party wall awards for extensions, loft conversions, basements and new development.
Party wall work in Cheadle
Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme are largely inter-war and post-war semi-detached and detached houses, with some Victorian property near the village centres.
Projects we see most: Two-storey side extensions, wraparound extensions and loft conversions.
Side extensions on semis often reach the boundary (Section 1) and need foundations near the neighbour's house (Section 6). Detached houses usually only trigger Section 6.
Neighbourhoods we cover in Cheadle
Cheadle village, Cheadle Hulme, Gatley, Heald Green, and the surrounding streets.
Local tip
Wraparound extensions on semis can trigger all three sections at once: a new wall on the boundary, work to the party wall, and foundations near the neighbour.
Notice periods are 1 month for Sections 1 and 6 and 2 months for Section 2. Check which notice you need, or get an instant estimate for your Cheadle project.
Planning and building control
Planning permission and building regulations in Cheadle are handled by Stockport Council. They're separate from the Party Wall Act, and you may need all three.
What clients say
We have just used Manchester Party Wall Surveyors in relation to a dormer conversion. One of our neighbours chose to dissent our request and appointed their own surveyor. MPWS were professional, informative and always reachable throughout the process and their costs were approximately 25% lower than the surveyor our neighbour appointed. Thank you so much MPWS for helping us navigate the award process in such a great way.
Party wall questions in Cheadle
Do you cover all of Cheadle?
Yes. We work across Cheadle (SK8) and the rest of Greater Manchester.
Do I need a party wall agreement for an extension in Cheadle?
Often, yes. You need notice if the extension wall is built on or up to the boundary, or the foundations are within 3 m of a neighbour's building and deeper than its footings. Serve notice at least one month before work, or two months for work to a party wall.
Is the Party Wall Act separate from Stockport Council planning permission?
Yes. Stockport Council deals with planning and building control. The Party Wall Act is a separate private process between you and your neighbours.
