Jonathan recently acted as our party wall surveyor for a loft conversion. He has been very helpful and responsive throughout the process. We needed to have the party wall agreement sorted in a short period of time, which Jonathan managed to do without any issues. We highly recommend working with Jonathan!
Claudia Bastiaensen March 2021 Jonathan is very professional and responsive. He explained the process very clearly and answered all our questions. The party wall issues for our loft conversion were resolved easily and quickly. Definitely recommend.
John Dyson March 2021 Jonathan has recently acted as our party wall surveyor for a project in Wandsworth. Throughout the process he has been extremely helpful and responsive, always on hand to answer any questions or queries even after the award had been settled. We would not hesitate to recommend his services and would definitely look to work with him again for any future works.
Andrew Ingram February 2021 I would not hesitate to recommend Jonathan. I found myself in an unexpected dispute with a neighbour about a party wall issue in respect of some garden work I was doing. I called Jonathan on the Friday - by lunchtime he had reviewed photos and given me some initial reassurance and suggested a way forward. By Monday he had come to the site, carried out an inspection with the neighbours present, inspected the neighbours premises and addressed their questions and assured them that no party wall notification was required. Jonathan has enormous experience in this area and it shows. His interaction with my neighbours was confident and authoritative - but also emotionally intelligent . As a result he totally de stressed the situation - I lost no time with my works and maintained good relations with my neighbour. More than worth Jonathan’s professional fee. Highly recommend !!
Susan Cellan Jones February 2021 Jonathan provided a quick and efficient service. Communication was clear and effective, with email responses within the same working day. The process of achieving a Party Wall Award was hassle free. I would recommend Jonathan and use this company again.

I’m delighted with the party wall work Jonathan completed for my loft conversion. From the moment we first spoke his advice was clear and very helpful. He managed to get 3 neighbours signed off on party wall awards within a month with no issues and the costs were as per his estimate. He was always responsive to emails and texts despite having to complete the work close to Christmas so that I could start my project on time. If you are planning a project that requires party wall work I strongly recommend using Jonathan. I also have experience of using a large party wall surveying firm and I can tell you that Jonathan is far more responsive and you really feel he is working with you to get that the sign off you need as quickly as possible.
Charles Bottomley January 2019 Google ***** Thank you Charlie, it was a pleasure to complete the work in your time frame and on budget. We do strive to do this, Jonathan. Highly recommend Jonathan, he has been great asset in assisting us throughout our loft conversion and helping issue party wall awards within a tight time frame.
Gwen Stapeley December 2018 Google ***** It's a pleasure to be of help, Gwen. I'm glad it all worked out in the end. Thank you for your review. From before I committed to a loft conversion I took advice from Jonathan re party wall matters as I had a non-resident neighbour (empty house). He was very helpful, explaining process, reassuring in his advice and ultimately when we needed to get an award, with an independent surveyor involved as well, Jonathan took it all forward with ease and in good time. It was great to have someone to rely on.
Tanya CB November 2018 Google ***** Thank you Tanya. I'm glad we completed the work within your time-frame. Thank you for your review, it is appreciated, Jonathan Jonathan was great to work with. He explained the process and answered any questions we had. Always prompt in replying too.

Matt Donovan February 2018 Google ***** Thank you for your review, Jonathan Call us on 07766 578195 for
expert, trusted advice Jonathan acted for myself and our neighbour regarding a party wall agreement. He was extremely helpful, honest, polite and very patient. There was a difficult situation that arose, due to another surveyor and difficult neighbour and Jonathan has been very supportive and helpful in dealing with this situation. We would highly recommend him without hesitation.
Linda Halperin January 2018 Google ***** Hi Linda Thank you for your review. Yours was a tricky matter to resolve due to your neighbour's stance coupled with their surveyor demanding an unreasonable amount in fees at the end! However their fees were robustly challenged ending very favourably for you. I hope your work progresses smoothly now. Regards Jonathan Bayliss Jonathan served 3 party wall awards for our neighbours when we wanted to carry out building work. He was very quick, responsive and had a great manner with us and our neighbours. If you are looking for a party wall surveyor we would certainly recommend.
Susie and Jonny November 2017 Google ***** Thank you for your review, Jonathan 
We hired Jonathan based on a suggestion from our architect and another friend who used his services. Throughout the process of dealing with a party wall issue related to our extension, he was professional and helpful, so I would have no reservation in recommending him.
Vasa Curcin November 2017 Google ***** Dear Vasa Thank you for your review and I look.forward to helping you again in the future Regards Jonathan Jonathan explained the party wall process clearly to my neighbour and myself providing reassurance to both of us. His recommendations were reasonable and the award was produced rapidly for a very reasonable price. He was professional and easy to work with answering any questions either of us had. Definitely recommended.
William Smallwood London October 2107 Google **** Hello William Thank you for.your testimonial. It was a pleasure assisting you and your neighbour with your scheme and I hope it all goes well Regards Jonathan Bayliss If you need advice call us on
07766 578195 I would recommend Jonathan in a heartbeat. From the off, Jonathan was extremely helpful and responsive. He made light work of what could have been a very stressful process given that our adjoining landowner is a local authority. His reputation in the Wandsworth area precedes him – and for good reason.
Thanks again, Ross Hockley LEGAL COUNSEL FORMULA 1® SW17 September 2017 
Hi Jonathan
Liz and I both liked your style of work and obvious building knowledge very much. I hope you’ll be happy to come on site in future to help us figure out technical solutions for other works now that we know your rates. Best Regards, Marlene Wilson Maintenance contractor SW4 Summer 2017 Jonathan provided great advice and support during a very tricky period during our party wall process. He appointed and dealt with neighbours' surveyor effectively; provided an inspection and produced an award very quickly. And he was very reasonable with his fees. I would whole-heartedly recommend his services.
Caleb Barnes Home owner SW17 January 2017 I am very happy to recommend Jonathan Bayliss for his expertise and professionalism in Party Wall matters. We have used him twice for Party Wall Agreements and he has been efficient and courteous to deal with.
On the second occasion we had a difficult neighbour who caused damage and erected a wall along a boundary with no consultation. Jonathan negotiated a satisfactory resolution on our behalf. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him. David Thursden Homeowner November 2016 Jonathan acted jointly for us and a neighbour as Agreed Surveyor for our loft conversion. He was very helpful in explaining the process and options to us (both parties being novices). He was polite, professional, fair and balanced in his approach and very responsive when we needed to reach him. His fees were also more favourable than others quotes we had received. Most importantly he turned the whole thing around very quickly to meet our short time frame and to our mutual satisfaction and has followed up since to check on progress.
Thanks Jonathan - you really helped take a bit of stress out of the process and I would definitely recommend you to others. Samantha Roberts Homeowner September 2016 I had a very good experience of working with Jonathan. He is pragmatic and responsive with a priority of minimising your costs.
Good to have him on your side - I would definitely use him again. Highly recommended. Mark Davis Homeowner August 2016 
Hi Jonathan
I would like to take the opportunity of thanking you so much for arranging the Party Wall awards. I never dreamed the process would run so smoothly. I would have no hesitation in recommending you. Kind regards Michael Hocking Homeowner February 2016 Hi Jonathan,
The post has just arrived, including your documents. Thank you for working so quickly and diligently on the party wall award, I would gladly recommend your services in the future. Payment has been made. With kind regards, Joel Homeowner September 2015 Throughout the preparation of my party wall statement Jonathan acted in a highly professional manner. He was very open and honest during the whole process and was willing to use his professional judgement during some difficult decision-making. What could have been a long drawn-out process was concluded within four weeks of negotiation. This was possible because of Jonathan’s sound judgement at every stage. I can thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking for a party wall surveyor.
Dr Diane Bebbington Homeowner Baylo is a legend....nice work...his handsomeness has got us through a tricky situation...

Jonathan is responsive and works in an extremely timely fashion. I would have no problem recommending Jonathan Bayliss. P.J Sykes Director, Halycon Property Investments I am happy to recommend Jonathan as a Party Wall Surveyor based on the efficient and helpful service which he provided for me in connection with the extensive refurbishment and extension of a semi-detached house in Putney. He dealt with everything to fit perfectly with the timing of my building program and provided constructive pro-active advice on all issues. I would use him again on another project.
