This Solihull guide applies the wider West Midlands ranking to owners looking for a specialist practice serving the borough. The ranking is regional because many party wall surveyors work across several neighbouring towns.
In Solihull, detached and semi-detached properties mean party wall issues can arise even where there is no shared wall. Excavation for an extension and construction close to the boundary may engage the Act, while attached properties can also involve party-structure work such as steel beams or chimney alterations.
The Act applies according to the proposed work and the relationship between the properties—not simply the postcode. If your property is in Shirley, Olton, Knowle, Dorridge, Lyndon and surrounding Solihull areas, the same statutory tests apply.
Important: this is not a separate Solihull-only ranking. It uses the current West Midlands specialist dataset. A practice’s inclusion here means it appears in that regional comparison; it does not imply that the practice is headquartered in Solihull.

Not necessarily. Party wall appointments are statutory dispute-resolution appointments, and many specialist practices work across a wider region. Location can matter for inspection logistics and availability, but it does not form part of this site's score. Compare who will actually handle the work, how quickly they can inspect when required, their party wall experience and their fee structure.
This site deliberately treats rating and review volume as separate factors. A very high rating based on a small number of reviews is different evidence from a similar rating supported by a much larger review history. Published fee value is assessed separately where there is enough comparable information.
A low fee is of little value if the wrong notices are served or if unnecessary work is created. The first question should be what the Act actually requires for the proposed works. For a plain-English explanation of common party wall issues, see the Party Wall Knowledge Base.
These local guides use the same regional dataset and are intended to help users navigate it by place without changing the underlying score.
