Section 6 Notice:
Excavation Works
Our Section 6 Notice service for Excavation Works is designed to facilitate legal compliance and mitigate potential risks associated with excavation near adjoining properties. We manage the entire notification process, from preparing and serving the notices to coordinating discussions with affected neighbours. Our experienced team ensures that all necessary information regarding the excavation works, including depth, location, and potential impacts, is clearly communicated to adjoining property owners in accordance with the Party Wall etc Act 1996. By fostering transparent communication and addressing concerns upfront, we aim to minimise disruptions and ensure that excavation projects proceed smoothly and in accordance with regulatory requirements, protecting the interests of all parties involved.
Why is a Section 6 Notice needed?
Legal Compliance
We handle the entire process of issuing Section 6 Notices in accordance with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, ensuring that property owners adjacent to excavation sites are informed about planned works and potential impacts on their properties.
Detailed Communication
Our service includes providing comprehensive details about the excavation works, such as depth, location, and anticipated duration, to neighboring property owners. This transparency helps to clarify any potential concerns or questions they may have.
Risk Mitigation
By proactively notifying adjoining owners and engaging in dialogue, we aim to mitigate risks associated with excavation, such as ground settlement or structural impacts, and address any specific requirements or agreements that may be necessary.
