Advice about noisy neighbours (uk)?

Hi,


Our next door neighbour plays loud music early in the morning and i wondered if anyone knew what you can do to stop this or who to contact.


The music can start anywhere between 6am and 8am. Its mostly the weekends but now he's started doing it in the week. Basically he's either waking people who need a good nights sleeps before work or waking people trying to have a lie-in at the weekends.


The music is so loud that i can hear every single word to the songs and him singing along to them at full volume (and he doesn't have a good singing voice)


The walls aren't even that thin so he must have it on very loud. Its really getting to me.


If anyone has been through a similar experience any advice is welcome.


Please don't suggest going round and asking/confronting him as for various reasons that can't happen. He is not a nice man and the best that would happen would be a fight.Advice about noisy neighbours (uk)?
I'm a firm believer in the ';anonymous note';. Slip a note under his door or in his mail box letting him know that he's being disruptive to all the neighbors. Politely ask him to keep it down or the police will be notified. If it comes down to you calling the police, tell them that your neighbor is disturbing the peace with his loud music. From my experience living in an apartment building, the police receive calls like this all the time. They won't rush to the scene, but they will show up and confront your neighbor.Advice about noisy neighbours (uk)?
go round there, tie him up and gag him.





then lock him in a safe and push it in the ocean.





it will be really quiet now. although, you probably won't be able to sleep cuz of the guilt of knowing that u just subjected someone to a slow, drowning death.





hmmm, maybe u should just call the police!
if you have a landlord contact him/her,if not,the hours are 6 am to 10pm, after that call the police, but goodluck with that if you live in a small town, and you are a property ownwer,my neighbors do that junk all night, I am thinking of joining them, tthey even build fires outside
CALL THE COPS AND SAYS HES DISTURBING PCE IN NEIGHBORHOOD
Lodge a complaint against him, with landlord and/or police. Landlords or building managers will sometimes act as go-betweens in neighbour disputes like this one. Find out what the ';nuisance noise'; hours are in your municipality (these are the laws prohibiting loud parties at 2 am, chainsaws at 5 am, etc.)





Failing that, try to spoil his music some. I had a more extreme situation than this many years ago -- the noise was outdoors, various neighbours playing their own favourite music with all doors and windows open, and none of the music harmonizing. There were too many ';offenders'; for my husband and I to go around confronting them.





So we moved our own stereo speakers over near the windows, and we ran our tape of the ';1812 Overture'; until we reached the climactic cannon-fire-and-church-bells sections. We then perched the speakers outdoors on the window-sill, and closed the windows on the wires. We played the music at close to top volume for about three minutes.





When we turned off our music and opened the windows again, all the other music had been stopped except for one boom-box down on the street -- and they were just making a point, because that got turned down/off, too, after another five minutes or so. We never had a ';duelling stereos'; problem again, as long as we were living in that flat.





In your case, don't play your music any louder than his, you're *not* trying to drown him out, just make it so he can't enjoy his own music in peace. Decide beforehand what you'll do if he decides to escalate.





Please warn your innocent-bystanding neighbours of your intentions, if you decide to give this tactic a try. And maybe do something nice for them, too, in the spirit of ';Thank you for bearing with me through all this'; -- if this one neighbour tries to persist (homemade baked goods usually go down well :-D ). You definitely would want your neighbours on your side, if possible, and not just sick of the whole lot of you.





Good luck! And you have my sympathies!
You can contact your local council (environmental health) They will come around and do a test , if it's found to be too loud they have steps they can take to make him turn it down.
