Our current kitchen is the standard Victorian extended kitchen (with the bathroom moved upstairs), but the previous owners also put up a 'superior' lean-to on the side, built to a fairly good standard but still has a plastic roof.
Our plan is to open up the whole space to have an open plan kitchen with a standard pitched side return.
Our neighbours are absolutely lovely and have said they are totally happy for us to do the work, however they are not the owners - it's a housing association house.
I was expecting to get a party wall agreement and hopefully next door would would agree to using the same surveyor. However with a HA house it isn't their decision.
Does anyone has any knowledge of how this will go down? I did wonder if we can find the surveyor used by the HA and use him for our survey too - we won't get to choose who it is but that would save a lot of money.
