This week has been a remarkable one for Duchy Party Wall Surveying, as we celebrate significant achievements in both Devon and North Cornwall. Our team has been hard at work ensuring smooth resolutions and expert guidance for our clients, and we’re thrilled to share the highlights.


Boundary Dispute Successfully Resolved in Devon


In Devon, we successfully mediated and resolved a complex boundary dispute. This case involved two property owners who had different interpretations of the boundary line between their homes. Initially, tensions were high, and both owners felt that their rights were being compromised. Through diligent work and open discussions, we engaged both parties effectively.


By working closely with all involved, we ensured a fair and amicable outcome that respected the rights and interests of both property owners. As a result, we created a clear, accurate boundary agreement that both parties signed off on. This resolution not only avoided potential legal complications but also reinforced the importance of clear communication and professional expertise in such matters.

Two Party Wall Awards Finalised in North Cornwall


Meanwhile, in North Cornwall, we finalised two party wall awards, ensuring compliance with the Party Wall Act and safeguarding the interests of all parties. These awards are crucial in property development and construction projects. They serve as legal agreements that outline what can be done, how it will be done, and the obligations of all parties involved.


Our thorough assessments and detailed communication helped ensure that the awarded parties understood their responsibilities. This comprehensive approach allows construction projects to proceed without disputes or delays. The process emphasizes the importance of meticulous surveying and common understanding among neighbours and builders alike.

The Importance of Face-to-Face Communication


One element that has contributed enormously to our success is our commitment to working face-to-face with clients and adjoining owners. While phone calls and letters can effectively convey information, in-person discussions allow for richer communication. Being present encourages an open dialogue where potential concerns can be directly addressed.


For example, during a recent project, an adjoining owner expressed worries about noise disruptions. By meeting in person, we were able to assure them of the measures in place to mitigate such disturbances. This approach fosters trust, clarity, and smoother resolutions for all parties involved. Overall, maintaining that human connection enhances collaboration and satisfaction.


Client-Centric Approach


At Duchy Party Wall Surveying, we pride ourselves on being client-centric. We understand the nuances of each case and tailor our approach to meet the specific needs of our clients. Being responsive to their questions and concerns builds rapport and trust.


After resolving the boundary dispute, we received positive feedback from one of the property owners. They mentioned how relieved they felt knowing they had a dedicated team working toward a resolution that respected their interests. Memorable experiences like this remind us of the impact our work has in protecting vital property interests.
