{"product_id":"the-law-and-practice-of-matthew-hearsum-9781446781326","title":"The Law and Practice of Basement Extensions: Second Edition","description":"The preface to the first edition of this book described basement extensions as a \"novel and specialist type of construction\" which, at that time, was confined to extremely affluent areas of London. Since then, basement extensions have become more common and are found all over England and Wales. Despite their increasing popularity, basement extensions remain a complex and specialist type of construction with many difficult and knotty problems. This book provides a clear explanation of the law related to those problems, including ownership of the subsoil, restrictive covenants, rights of support, underground water rights, planning control and building regulations, as well as claims for private and statutory nuisance. This book also explains the law relating to liability for defective underpinning and foundations, which is a frequent arena of disputes as second basement extensions become more common. This book has been complied by one of the leading legal experts on basement extensions from their extensive experience acting for both developers and adjoining owners. It is essential reading for all lawyers, surveyors, engineers, architects and other professionals involved in the construction of basement extensions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Hearsum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1446781321\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781446781326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Matthew Hearsum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47001518211327,"sku":"9781446781326","price":64.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_52fe32eb-02a2-421f-8d38-70b8a72688fe.jpg?v=1751601314","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-law-and-practice-of-matthew-hearsum-9781446781326","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
