Removing an internal wall and placing a steel in its place. The steel will run the full width of the property replacing the 2 parts steels that are currently there and meet at a structural wall. The new steel will be placed on top of the existing steels fixing points.
It's not really much work at all.

When I had my loft done I was a bit pissed off that the neighbour's on one side pushed back and wanted to instruct their own surveyor, etc. In hindsight though I didn't mind too much, it cost more money but it removed most concerns about ending up in a dispute afterwards with claims that I'd caused damage that I couldn't confirm, etc
I would have preferred they went with a joint surveyor rather than the pricey one their mate recommended though.
You mean they want their own surveyor?
Depending on what work you're doing, that's not entirely unreasonable.
Annoyingly expensive, sure - Not sure unnecessary though.
