About this deal

Some leases say that the leaseholders must not make noise audible outside their property at certain times (such as between 11pm and 7am).Leases sometimes also ban pets (if it is a barking dog that is the problem) and musical instruments. Sound proofing aside, if you have talked to your neighbours about noise problems and nothing you say seems to work, another route the council might recommend is mediation. Mediation can be a particularly good choice if you have completely fallen out with your neighbours or if you are in other disputes with them. Mediation involves the following: It sounds like a cliché, but it’s usually good to talk to your neighbours. One in three people have found that this has solved any noise problems immediately. Surprisingly often, people do not even realise they are being annoying and few people are totally uncaring about those around them; most are just unaware. How should you raise the noise issue with your neighbour? If your neighbors seem lonely and bored—like they're just nosing because they want to connect with someone—try talking to them, introducing them to other neighbors, and suggesting fun things for them to do. Give a brief description of what is going on. Tell them what is currently happening. Say something like, “I’m trying to file a noise complaint on one of my neighbours who is having a party that is not in accordance with our community rules.”

where the only winner is the lawyer. Roughly half of Britons don’t know their neighbour’s name . Is this a factor? Consider mediation services. A mediator is an independent person who can help two sides come to an agreement. Some councils and housing associations provide free mediation services to their tenants – or you can search for a mediator online through the Ministry of Justice.If you can muster the courage, confronting a nosy neighbour might be less of an issue than you imagine. Of course it could all go horribly wrong, but it does depend on how you approach it. Letting your neighbour know that you appreciate that they are only looking out for you, but that you find their attention a bit overbearing and, frankly, disconcerting, may be enough to ward them off a little. It pays to be courteous, so think about how you would like to be treated. You never know, being honest might have a more positive outcome than you think. If you're having trouble with loud noise at night, your local council has powers to deal with it. And even if it isn't at night, they should investigate if you say it's a nuisance or damaging your health. If you have a dispute with your neighbour over a shared wall or fence, that's a civil matter, and the local council won't intervene. Instead, you'll need to appoint a surveyor or get legal advice to resolve the issue. At the same time, you will be asked to fill out a “noise diary” which logs the time and place you heard the noise and from where it came. Most importantly, the council wants to see how the noise is affecting you. The council will use your noise diary to establish a method of investigating. This might depend on you phoning somebody up who will come round to hear the noise or they might install noise monitoring equipment.

Here are a few options to help you reduce the amount of outside noise coming through into your home: Take legal action. Legal action should be your last resort as a result of trying every possible way to reach a solution and not finding one. Use the notes you have taken during past indiscretions with your neighbours as supporting documents to build your civil case for small claims court. While the council cannot stop you from hearing traffic at home, other man-made noise pollution — your neighbour's dog barking, construction work, loud music — can be investigated. How can I complain about a noisy neighbour? Whether it's music or TV, loud gatherings or barking dogs, it can be very frustrating to have noisy neighbours. How much of a problem it is depends on how often it occurs and when. For instance, noise in the day can be less of a disturbance than noise late at night.To count as a 'statutory nuisance' that the council can help deal with, neighbour noise must either: None of these solutions are pleasant to think about, but when it comes to snoopy neighbors who can’t respect the boundaries of common courtesy, drastic measures may sometimes be the only way to regain your peace of mind. Nevertheless, these options should be viewed as a last resort, to be used only in cases where no other solutions are viable. If your neighbors are nosy, but you don't want to confront them directly, try finding ways to avoid their snooping. If your neighbors are always watching you, then put up a fence or conduct your business indoors; if your neighbors are always confronting you and asking you personal questions, then consider how you can avoid talking to them. While having nosey neighbors might not seem like such a big deal, it can be a tremendous inconvenience, not to mention extremely damaging for your peace of mind. Moving to a new home (or a new city) will allow you to find new, better neighbors, with less time on their hands to spend snooping around your business. Getting the council involved could raise tensions with your neighbour and the dispute might escalate — your neighbours could ultimately end up in court.
