You need to serve a party wall notice if you are excavating close to an adjoining property or doing work to an existing party wall. You also need to serve notice if you want to build on the boundary line. The 3 sections of the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 are as follows: 

If you are proposing work under any of these sections then you are required to serve a party wall notice. 

Whilst you can serve these initial notices yourself without using a party wall surveyor, if you make mistakes, you could find that the process later down the line is invalid and you may have to start again from scratch. If you are unsure what is required then you should use the services of a party wall surveyor. 

We can draft and serve the correct notices on your behalf for a nominal cost. This will prevent wasted time and possibly increased costs of the adjoining owner's surveyor dealing with an incorrect notice.
