#ThirdSurveyor

In this surveying blog post, I will be discussing the role that a Third Surveyor plays in Party Wall Surveying process and I will be established when they are required.

For every Party Wall Dispute that has two separate Surveyors appointed on behalf of both the Building Owner and Adjoining Owner, a third Surveyor will also be in place.

As per the wording of the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 S10(1)(b):, Each party shall appoint a surveyor and the two surveyors so appointed shall forthwith select a third surveyor (all of whom are in this section referred to as “the three surveyors”)

The Third Surveyor’s duties are to make determinations and resolve any dispute deferred to them by either of the two Surveyors or either of the respective owners.
