Noise nuisance
This information is to help you understand noise problems.
The most common noises we get complaints about are:
- Barking dogs.
- Loud music.
- Shouting.
- Slamming doors.
Often these noises are a problem because they happen at night or early in the morning. They can be annoying at any time but are more noticeable at quiet times of day.
Living close to other people needs compromise. Neighbours should be fair to each other. You need to receive a balance between what you would like to do in and around your home and what your neighbours can expect.
