Yeah... overall...
£1250 x 2 when we had the extension done.
£1500 to move a fence (which was wrong tbf, but had no issues with it for a year, so didn't count this originally)
£1250 x 2 for the loft.I get it, she's within her rights, but I think being upfront and communicating can save a lot of stress and hassle.
She also tried to stop our other neighbours loft, and cost them the same.
Thing is, she's actually a really lovely person apart from this, who I actually really respect in some ways (reg things she has done in other aspects of life).

These are just associated costs you need to suck up as part of your works, why should your neighbour forgo their rights/protection to save you a few quid?

She's probably a bit bored of living next to building sites, then, after two projects from you and one from her other neighbour.

Why x2? You mean your surveyor and theirs?
I think the minimum to expect (and the minimum to protect yourself) is a joint surveyor.
If I did it again I'd view any savings from the max as a benefit rather than any extra from the minimum as costs

£5k? Shit. I was thinking it’d be a grand or something. Do the sausage thing.
