Noise problems

Noise problems come in many forms. It could be persistent noise from a business or a construction site, loud music from a bar or a club, or everyday things like noisy dogs.

For many people, excessive noise is a source of irritation and stress that can interfere with an individual's right of peace and quiet at home and cause sleep disturbance.

Frequently, problems regarding excessive noise can be resolved informally by politely explaining the problem to the maker and trying to come to a compromise. However, this informal approach may not always be successful and some people may not be prepared to speak directly to the noise maker.

We understand how annoying noise can be and consequently we provide a range of services, which can help resolve many of these complaints.

If you have concerns about exposure to workplace noise visit our Health and Safety pages.
