We specialise in extending residential leases under the Leasehold Reform Act. Our surveyors calculate fair premiums, negotiate with freeholders, and guide clients through statutory procedures. With expertise in 90-year extensions and no-ground-rent provisions, we ensure compliance with legal requirements while protecting property values for London homeowners.
Collective Enfranchisement
Assisting leaseholders in blocks of flats to collectively purchase freeholds under the Leasehold Reform Act. We handle valuations, coordinate tenant participation, and negotiate terms. Our specialists ensure legal compliance while helping residents gain control over property management and maintenance decisions.
Building Surveys
Comprehensive property condition assessments for residential and commercial buildings. Our detailed reports identify structural defects, recommend remedial works, and assess subsidence risks. Tailored to client needs, these surveys include specialist evaluations of services and drains, essential for informed property transactions.
Party Wall Awards
Providing expert party wall advice under the 1996 Act. We prepare schedules of condition, negotiate awards, and resolve disputes between building owners and adjoining parties. Our services cover loft conversions, extensions, and chimney breast removals, ensuring legal compliance while protecting property interests.

We provide detailed reports for residential and commercial properties across London and the South East.
Questions
How do I extend my lease under the Leasehold Reform Act?
Contact us for a valuation assessment. We'll guide you through the statutory process, calculate your premium, and negotiate with the freeholder on your behalf.
What is collective enfranchisement?
It's the legal right for leaseholders in a block to collectively purchase the freehold. We help coordinate tenant participation and handle negotiations with the current freeholder.
Do I need a building survey before buying property?
Yes, especially for older properties or those with extensions. Our detailed surveys identify structural issues and maintenance requirements to inform your purchase decision.
What party wall work requires an award?
Loft conversions, extensions, and chimney breast removals typically require party wall awards. We can assess if your planned works need one and prepare the necessary documentation.
How do you handle leasehold valuation disputes?
We provide expert representation at Leasehold Valuation Tribunals, preparing detailed valuations and negotiating settlements between lessees and freeholders based on statutory guidelines.

People you must try the ricotta hotcakes with honeycomb butter! I can't even describe how mouthwatering it is, it's like eating a cloud so yummy The food is so delicious overall Halloumi roll and the grilled cheese were both so good And of course, the signature scrambled eggs, with mushrooms on the side We were lucky to be served by Mr. Jack, he is so nice and made our experience unforgettable. Definitely coming back insha Allah

Quite fancy, no dish here is straight forward, it all has ingredients you'd not expect with a very modern menu. The food is great though, and the atmosphere is lively. The staff is very professional. I enjoyed sitting there but it might not be the place if you are looking to eat something simple.

The ambience is nice, quality of food is fine. Wasn't too impressed with the starters I got but the main course of crab linguine was yummy and the wine also very good. Its a no smoking restaurant inside and outside also. The staff were very busy so we didn't get served our drinks till we asked for the 3rd time and also we had to ask for the bill twice also. Overall is a nice cute place and is fine to eat at. Casual dining with a nice ambience and friendly but over worked staff.

I absolutely love this place - it has some of the best pasta dishes in London. Everything we had was excellent - it's the kind of place you want to return to over and over to try multiple things and repeat favorites. The wine selection is great too, it's small but everything is good and pairs well with their dishes. Service was also great - friendly, attentive and helpful. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Nice, compact little place with plenty of sitting on the ground floor and even more sitting on the top floor. Portions are very generous and tasty. Drinks are super delicious also. I would totally recommend this place to tourists, locals and passers by. Place is a little crammed, so just be prepared to be squeezed in a little.

They did it again, have visited all the other ones in London and they still keep surprising me in a good way. Yes, it can be tricky to get a table especially on a Sunday like today. But wow the wait is worth it. Super professional service, nice vibe and they food is out of this world. See you soon again.

Had a nice time at Granger & co. We had lunch and we had to wait 20 minutes to get a table. The staff was very nice and the hostness made our experience even better with her friendly personality. We had salad and pancakes, beer and sparkling wine. Beerglass was chilled and the food was good. Highly recommend!

Before we came we think it was better than this flavor! Maybe because we put high expectations and when we came it looks different! The scramble egg was so buttery and no flavor on it, the pancakes was good, but I will not come back again, there is better than this breakfast in London.

I regularly visit the Granger & Co branch in King's Cross which consistently has exceptional customer service and high quality food and drinks. I dined at the Chelsea branch with my partner a while back and had a pleasant experience. I ordered the salmon and scrambled eggs along with a flat white and my partner had the pancakes. The service was swift and the food tasted great as always. The restaurant was bustling and had a lengthy queue outside so we were waiting a while to get in but that's expected during weekend 'brunch time'.

By the time we'd finished eating the restaurant was however almost completely empty. The restaurant has cosy surroundings, a good layout and I loved the interior decor. All in all, a good experience and would recommend.
