Raynes Park Apostles House Renovation Nightmare

My decision to use Surrey Party Wall as my surveyor and sister company Beaver Tech as my architect structural engineer was based on a competitive quote and their knowledge of houses in the area my property was located an Apostles style terraced house in South Wimbledon Building works began in Sept 2022 on what was supposed to be a 10 week project to add a 4m rear extension and 3rd bedroom with en-suite in the loft space Building work seemed good at first but after a few months had passed it came to be every homeowners nightmare Inadequate steel supports in the foundations missing support beams in loft floors missing supports for roof steels omitted supporting columns on the rear of the house totally inadequate and leaking roof incorrect tiles used on the rear extension causing an influx of rainwater everywhere incorrect and missing insulation the list was almost endless This plus damage to neighbour s houses are just some of the problems encountered It was to quote Beaver Tech one of the worst building projects they had ever seen Thank goodness for Chris and his father Ed at Beaver Tech Surrey Party Wall Surveyors By looking at photos I had taken discussing issues and site visits they identified every incorrect or missing structural detail and immediately informed me and the building company what had happened and what MUST be done to rectify the issues They would make themselves available at weekends to inspect the works at the property and liaised with Building Control to ensure they didn t signoff anything that wasn t visible or already plastered over or covered in flooring If it was they insisted it be exposed for inspection Chris even gave me advise on speaking with the construction company in regards to their unjust demand for extra cash for the remediation works This advice saved me thousands in extra costs They also spoke with my very irate neighbours and assured them all would be resolved as soon as possible with minimum disruption Although the remediation works took an extra 4 months my house is now complete and structurally sound as per the architectural designs and building regulations I cannot thank Chris and Ed enough for ensuring this happened For anyone looking for an architect and surveyor I cannot recommend them enough They went above and beyond what anyone would expect would be required for a building project

Amazing

Amazing company So helpful Various issues came up with our neighbours and their surveyor however Surrey Party Wall Surveyors were able to deal with the situation and help us proceed with our loft and kitchen extension as quickly as possible They are always on the ball and really care about helping clients I would highly recommend them

Party Wall Agreement

We had neighbours that received a letter from another surveyor that put the fear of God in them with regards to a simple loft conversion The other surveyor would not give me a quote for surveys until my neighbours had signed up then would have charged me a fortune I recommended Chris and Ed to my neighbours who explained all of the options and prices for surveys and talked them through the procedures They agreed to have a survey and photos taken which they were extremely happy about I can t recommend them enough Thank you so much for taking the stress away from us
