Sharing isn't always easy, even for fully grown adults, which perhaps explains why party walls can, at times, be rather troublesome. After all, if they are shared and become damaged, who is responsible for repairing a party wall?
Party walls are walls that are shared between two adjoining properties, standing slap bang in the middle of the boundary of land between owners. Should you wish to carry out any work that will affect this wall in any way, you need to inform the neighbours you share it with and serve a Party Wall Notice.
