Noise disturbance between neighbours is a common issue, and finding a resolution can be a real challenge for housing associations.
That's where Neighbour Noise Control comes in, offering a smart, reliable solution to turn the noise into clear, actionable insights and help bring peace back to your tenant's community.
Introducing the
A specialised, portable noise measurement device designed to accurately capture and assess neighbour noise disturbances.
Conveniently housed in a suitcase, this innovative tool allows housing associations to independently investigate noise complaints and gather objective measurement data on-site.
At NNC, we take this a step further. We provide a comprehensive analysis of the data and audio recording of noise nuisance. Through long-term measurements at the complainant’s premises (typically two weeks), the Noise Nuisance Recorder will accurately capture critical factors like duration, frequency, and recurrence of the noise. Important factors like these need to be professionally analysed and compiled into an official report in order to build a strong and successful case to confront the person causing the nuisance.

Our process
Once the Noise Nuisance Recorder has been purchased, housing associations can deploy it for tenants experiencing noise issues from their neighbours. The equipment is easy to use and provides accurate noise measurements, allowing noise complaints to be substantiated with hard facts. But this is just the first step.
After measuring noise nuisance, the issue is not yet resolved. This is where our expertise comes into play. The recorded noise data is sent to Neighbour Noise Control, where our team of experienced sound analysts carefully examine the data. Based on this analysis, we prepare a detailed and thorough report that makes comparisons with recognised local noise standards and guidance.
The report provided by Neighbour Noise Control offers an objective assessment of the noise measurements. It determines whether the noise disturbance exceeds appropriate local standards and thresholds. With this report in hand, housing associations can take targeted action and confront the noise offender with irrefutable evidence.
