Companies keep an eye on the planning applications on council websites and send out letters to neighbors when applications are approved. They can charge a shed load because it's very difficult to contest the fees.
If you do want a survey, which isn't necessarily a bad idea, talk to your neighbor and agree to employ a joint surveyor which will half the cost for them.

Neighbour is having an extension. All good. Had a letter from a company stating they can arrange a party wall survey which neighbour will pay for. (properties aren't attached but within 3 metres).
Should we get this? Can't I just ask my neighbour directly to get one done?
