Party wall notice
I’m in the process of getting a loft conversion and my neighbours are tenants. I’ve spoken with the tenants and they’re okay with the loft conversion. Should I still serve the landlord with a party wall notice and do landlords don’t care about stuff like this. I don’t fancy going down the hole of getting a party wall agreement and getting party wall surveyors involved. Any and all advice is appreciated.
Tips for installing a stud wall
Do you need to buy all the materials/supplies as part of a package or from the same provider for installing a stud wall or can you mix and match from different suppliers and still have it work okay? Can I buy these from different places and how di I know that they’re compatible? I’m just looking for ways to save on money for this project as best I can without compromising the safety and success of the installation. Thank you.

Stitching anchors Cintec or Helifix
I've recently had a structural survey done on our house that we are in the process of buying. They have come back that there is "Vertical vee cracks in masonry panels at the corner of the property." They recommended introduction of stitching anchors, Cintec/Helifix, across the cracked sections of masonry. They have given us a rough estimate of between £7k-£10k for the work. Is that common estimation for that kind of work or am I being overcharged? I would also like to know how long this kind of work would take on a property? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I would just like to know I'm paying the right amount for the work.
