• Our neighbour seemed a bit concerned about our pending extension and the need for party wall surveyors etc.

    I wasn't sure why until she came round for a chat and brought a sheaf of letters she'd been receiving from companies as soon as our planning permission came through.

    I didn't realise there was such an ambulance-chasing industry around scaring people whose neighbours are getting work done into thinking it's going to be a nightmare.

    Capitalism <3

  • Yep. As I discovered when I had my loft done it is also really difficult to contest the excessive fees they charge.

  • Did you speak to her before you applied for planning permission?

  • They’re utter cunts.

    We even got letters urging us to engage some bullshit firm as party wall surveyors to protect us from our own fucking planning application lol
