If you experience noise outside of the allowed hours, you can take several steps to address the issue. Initiate by documenting the noise events—note the times, dates, and how it affects you. Contact the environmental protection team to report the noise nuisance, providing them with the necessary details about the situation.
Here's a summary of actions you can take:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Document the noise: times, types, and duration. |
| 2 | Contact the environmental health team or use The Noise App if the noise is from a council-owned property. |
| 3 | Consider speaking directly to the person or company responsible for the noise. |
In case of ongoing noise issues, the council may investigate and take actions, but if informal resolution is not possible, you might need to consider legal action. Keep your records handy, as they can help in supporting your complaint.
