Anything I need to know about a party wall agreement with my very nice neighbour? Kent, England.

Hi,

(posted previously to legaladviceuk, but no response unfortunately. Hopefully OK to try here)

Today my very pleasant neighbour approached me to get my email address to send a party wall agreement to.

It concerns a proposed replacement of his garage with a wrap around extension. The garage is currently on the boundary between us, then there is a gap of maybe half a meter, then out annex, so the party wall will actually be the boundary fence.

Both houses are detached.

Can any of you kind folk on here tell me if there is anything I need to be aware of when it arrives ?

I assume I will need to get proper legal advice - it seems we have the option to use their survayer, or to appoint our own. Is is reccomended to get our own independant advice? is that what people usually do in this situation?

Our main concern is to end up with a cast iron guarentee that any damage done is put right. We have no objection to the building itself, nor to giving the builders access from our side to do the job, provided we end up with no damage on our side.

Any questions I should ask?

Thank you

George

Hi,

I hope this is allowed, but I want to say how much I like Frigate.

Ive tried all the big-hitters, like Blueiris, XProtect, motion and Zoneminder.

Frigate, even without the AI stuff is by far the best UI and performance ive ever had from my hardware (Reolink E1 pros x 4)

I was able to pass in my 6600 AMD gpu to my LXC promox container, and that worked really well - i now get people detection, and the video is silky smooth from the clients.

Where have you been all my life Frigate? this is what ive always wanted from a NVR and it even runs nicely in a container, making installation childs play.

Thank you to all the devs
