Report a noise problem

Get help with noisy neighbours, loud music, barking dogs, alarms and building sites.

We can investigate noise from homes, businesses, building sites, alarms and animals if it's happening regularly or at unreasonable times.

Try talking to them first

People often do not realise they're causing a problem. If you feel safe doing so, talk to them or put a polite note through their door.

Report noise

Tell us where the noise comes from, what it is, and when it happens.

What happens next

We'll contact you within 5 working days. We may ask you to keep a diary of the noise for 2 weeks, or to record it with our free noise app. If we agree the noise is a statutory nuisance, we can serve a notice to stop it, and take legal action if it carries on.

Noise happening now

Our noise patrol works on Friday and Saturday nights, 10pm to 3am. Call 01632 960 004 while the noise is happening.
