Free AI Party Wall Notice Checker

Describe your proposed building works in plain English and get an immediate, hedged indication of which notices under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 may be relevant — Section 1 Line of Junction, Section 2 Party Structure, or Section 6 Adjacent Excavation.

Try these examples:
  • "Loft conversion, raising party wall 300mm and inserting steel beam" → Checks Section 2(2)(a) & 2(2)(f)
  • "Single storey extension excavating 2.5m deep within 2m of neighbour's house" → Checks Section 6(1) 3m rule
  • "Building new wall astride boundary line" → Checks Section 1(2) consent requirement

Disclaimer: This indication is generated by a custom-trained automated model without human review and may contain errors. It does not constitute professional advice. Obtain independent verification from a qualified Party Wall Surveyor before serving notices or commencing works. Metris does not accept basement or deep-excavation projects.

How it works

Tell the checker what you're planning — a new wall on the boundary, cutting into a shared wall for a steel beam, or excavating near a neighbouring structure — and it will indicate which sections of the Act are likely to be relevant. The tool preserves hedged language (likely / possibly / unlikely) because the Act is fact-specific. For a project-specific assessment from Paul directly, use the contact form.
