Appealing a Party Wall Award: Costs, Risks & How to Avoid Mistakes!
Hello, and welcome to another video about The Party Wall Act! It’s something we come across a lot as Chartered surveyors, and a lot of homeowners have to interact with it when they want to improve their home. Today we’re specifically looking at Section 10(17) of the Party Wall Act 1996, which states that either of the parties to the dispute may appeal to the County Court against an Award within 14 days of the Award being made. In response, the County Court may:
• Rescind the Award or modify it in such a manner that the court sees fit, and;
• Order costs paid as the court sees fit.
But what does this mean, and how does the appeals process work?
If you’re considering an appeal or need support with Party Wall matters, our expert team at Harrison Clarke is here to help.

One company in my town installs spray foam and another one is advertising removal for £900. No mortgages available here if spray foam in the roof
Hi guys, really informative videos, so thank you! If i were to move somewhere and the neighbours have built there extension up to the boundary. Does this mean i cant now extend that side? Like do they just look at it as 1st come first serve? Or can i join/leave a certain gap... thank you!
😊
Thank u very informative
Thank you - so glad you found it so informative!
Weird video switching to a human
You are full of it!!!!!!!
Explain with video then all body will understand
The Building Surveyor will inform you that it has to be removed. Happened to me, £4.000+ installation then this year another £3.200 to have it removed just so i could sell my house.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s definitely frustrating when unexpected costs like that come up, especially when it’s related to selling your property. Wishing you all the best with your house sale!
Spray foam insulation is awful. I could show you pictures of roof jobs where the foam has ruined the timber. Rockwool is far better.
So, where are the pictures you mentioned?
@@gregcharland Well I'm not going to divulge personal information to you, but a quick search on Google will show you what damage can be caused over time. I'm sure you're competent enough to think of search words for yourself.

Very insightful ❤
Thank you! We are glad you found it insightful. 😁
Helpful video but you did not answer how much one should expect to pay. What is the point?
Hi @mrsf8498, Thank you for your comment - I'm glad you found the video helpful. I didn't say a specific cost because it can vary widely depending on factors such as size and complexity of the property, the type of construction and its geographical location. Remember the survey report you are buying is unique to your property at a point in time, and therefore it may differ in cost to another survey report about a different property If you'd like to find out specific survey costs for the property you are interested in, please don't hesitate to get in contact on 023 8155 0051 or info@harrisonclarke.co

Thank you for the information on the difference. Due to flammable and other factors it is not a choice for my home. Perhaps a shed or garage.
Stange video not looking at cam and reading?! Had to switch
Nice video, but it is a little bit complicated. I assume that you an iprove the video when you structure it and include short summaries or bullet points. Keep up your good work while educating others.
First of all, there are many ways to utilize spray foam in construction....your example is not the standard nor is it required. As with any construction material, spray foam can and should be designed into an assembly by qualified/certified experts....why you are focusing in on a very widely used product like spray foam is questionable.....and spray foam can meet fire code requirements in almost every case.....if your goal is quality construction, discuss the pitfalls of fiberglass insulation that commonly causes building failures......
Hi Bob, Thank you for your comment! 🙂 This video is specifically about the use of Spray Foam Insulation within the roof spaces of dwelling houses in the UK. We have focused on this issue as it currently is causing problems with selling properties and/or obtaining mortgage finance where it has been installed.
What is the boundary?
In England and Wales, the term ‘boundary’ does not have a particular meaning in law, however you will hear people refer to the legal boundary and physical boundary. 1. The legal boundary is an invisible line that is used to divide the land or property of different owners. It is worth noting that the legal boundary is rarely identified accurately or with any precision within legal documents. 2. The physical boundary is a visible feature that marks the legal boundary. For example, it could be a fence, wall, hedge or even a river. We often see homeowners confused as to where their boundary actually is! Whilst, you will likely have a plan referred to within your deeds, the boundary lines shown on this plan are for ‘identification only’. This means you cannot rely upon it showing the exact boundaries of your property or land. Even so, the lines shown on these plans are too thick to show a true boundary or take measurements from. In terms of party wall matters, the Act refers to the boundary as the ‘line of junction’. You will hear party wall surveyors use these terms interchangeably, but there is one difference between the terms ‘line of junction’ and ‘boundary line’. Unlike the boundary line, the line of junction extends upwards through buildings. I hope this answers your question but do get in touch if you would like to know more and keep an eye out for future videos on this subject! - From Faye :)
Why's he not looking at the camera. It's kinda distracting
Yeah I couldn't watch past that, and quite clearly reading out a script too, the eye movement
My buyers want to do survey level 2 with my 5 years old house just before exchange the contract which is a bit suspicious , they were here 3 times to view property, so I believe they expect that survey report will give them chance to negotiate price
Not even remotely suspicious. Everybody buying a house should conduct a survey before exchange. If the property has serious issues, then obviously they should not expect to pay the full amount.
Good info, thanks
Thank you! 🙏
I am a leaseholder. Bought my flat 5 years ago, when I was 23. Quiet young and didnt realise I was making a mistake by refurbishing ;( ! What should I do now? I changed the carpet to hardwood flooring. I chabged the bathroom from Tub to Shower. And I removed the wall that separates the Kitchen and the living room, making a open space. The flat looks beautiful now, and definetly has more value. But certainly that was a mistake, without getting the freeholder permission. I am so scared and upset. Can you give me some advice on what to do please?
So, the practical solution is to use spray foam on walls, and rigid foam or fiberglass beneath the roof?
We have not discussed the use of spray foam on walls but can consider this for future videos. The use of mineral wool insulation to insulate roof spaces is normally more cost effective in our experience, however there may be some situations where spray foam is more practical or suitable to install. Each case should be carefully considered.
My builder just told me that the closed cell would go on the walls and the open cell foam beneath all 3 story roofs. I am just confused with this insulation.
It dosnt seem to be a problem in ireland? They say here dont spray to the felt and put in a 2 inch card. And there would always be a breeze coming between felt and foam that wouod dry and condenstation
We can only comment on our experience here in England. The creation of a continuous ventilated void using ‘card spacers’ between a high resistance underlay and the spray foam insulation with a vapour control layer (AVCL) on the warm side of the insulation may create a lower risk of condensation in accordance with the guidance of BS5250:2021. However, in our experience it is more common to find that the insulation has been sprayed directly onto the underlay or sometimes even onto the tiles or slates themselves. The installation of card spacers will be more time consuming which could increase the cost of installation. Ultimately unless the installation of the cards is fully documented it is difficult for a surveyor to determine if such cards are in place and/or have been installed correctly without intrusive investigations. Another point to consider is that creation of a 2” air gap below the underlay will limit the thickness of foam insulation which can be installed ‘between’ the rafters, particularly if these are less than 100mm in depth. Each case therefore needs to be considered on its own merits.
Create another certification.
Hi I am a truss designer, in my service I provide truss layout and design. also provide quantity takeoff for construction jobs i/c; MEP. Thank you
I would think if you want to avoid lender issues ( mortgage) don't spray foam your attic. Also, you won't know if you have water issues until a lot of damage has been done. Just my opinion. I think the mortgage issue seems to be in the UK

Imagine him speaking like that about women. "Crazy women are a problem and can create many serious problems." Well, that certainly is true, and all the sane women out there agree with that. But when only crazy women are being spoken of, the problems they cause get hung on ALL women. Other countries have long histories with spray foam that are positive. Because it is easy to find responsible information on this subject today, it's alarming that any institutions in the U.K. would dare to push bad policies that are based on false claims.
what the hell has this to do with women? Do they cause dry rot?
No sound for half the video
Given the manipulative cold-callers I get, using scare tactics and telling lies, I doubt very much that the sprayers are 'well intended'.
I've never had a problem selling homes with spray foam insulation, nor have I heard of lenders rejecting a spray foam insulated home in my area (zone 6a). I've had fiberglass insulated homes that had mold issues due to the fact that most batt insulators don't take the time to get the batts into very tight spaces at corners or around windows or in stud spaces that are way less than the width of the batts. By smashing batt insulation into small spaces, the insulation value drops due to compression and you can get condensation. Interior plastic sheet vapor barriers get punctured with drywall screws, poor insulating detail around receptacles and homeowners punching nails through to hang stuff on walls. Without insulation covering 100% of the sheathing and a proper continuous vapor barrier, condensation will form in colder climates. With spray foam, the foam expands into tight areas, so you are less likely to have any condensation issues and no vapor barrier is used because spray foam is the vapor barrier. Closed cell spray foam also adds rigidity to walls. We gutted a 50 year old home and re-insulated with closed cell and there was no more wall creaking when it was windy. Spray foam is superior to other insulations for filling small gaps and R-value per inch. Most new homes in my area have been using closed cell spray foam for many years with zero issues. The best practice, IMO, is to use Zip-R exterior insulated sheathing with the correct R-value for your zone. When the sheathing seams are properly sealed with Zip tape or liquid flash, the building envelope is airtight and watertight with no need for window bucks, furring strips or a WRB, as you'd need with XPS or EPS over sheathing. Not all homes should use spray foam. Very old homes need their wall cavities to breathe due to air leaking cladding. Vapor permeable batts are a safer choice. If your roof leaks, it's most likely due to having an old roof which needs replacing and that neglect is on the homeowner. When re-roofing, I'd rather need to replace some roof sheathing and maybe some roof truss repair than replacing rotting wall studs, hardwood floors or personal property if the roof leaks with batt insulation.
Hi Bob! This video was in reference to UK construction, we understand that US construction differs in regulation. Thank you for your comment! 🙌
I have, my profession of 36 years. Some of the original foams off gassed some lethal crap. Including formaldehyde. There we some pretty sick folk and lawsuits.
@@MinnesotaBeekeeper Yeah, lead paint in older homes is still an issue, so don't use paint on your walls? Closed cell foam is much safer today than the original, when applied correctly. What's your point?
Insulated zip doesn’t provide enough sheer strength for a lot of places. Mostly places with seismic considerations.
Its well or better then well. I have used rockwool invented in USA i USA in 1953 or something. Here You have the rain and will will repair Your roof or walls before its too late. Nice UA-cam
Good advice is offered here in that tracking down the actual cause of damp requires a whole house approach, that the causes may be multiple rather than singular, and that sales based damp-proofers are rarely the best people to seek advice from. I do think it important to add however that not all Chartered Surveyors have expertise in the diagnosis of damp, as many purchasers who have obtained Home Buyer and Building Survey reports will testify. Always worth asking to view previous reports of similar properties so you know what to expect.
Good information. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Can the building owner get access to the schedule of condition including photos undertaken on the adjoining property?
This is normally shared; however we can implement procedures where this is not shared with the building owner unless absolutely necessary (such as in the event of damage developing that needs to be evidenced to the building owner). We are happy to securely hold such schedules of condition on file instead of sending to both parties. Sometimes we share the text part of the schedule, but not the photos - it depends on what the adjoining owner is happy with.
I like the cask behind
Interesting video, but losing the voice several times
