Neighbour Noise Problems through Walls and Floors Surveyed Online

One in five people suffer the nuisance of Neighbour Noise (or Neighbor Noise for the benefit of out American visitors).  These situations need very diplomatic handling – it's too easy to get off on the wrong foot. The victim usually puts up with the nuisance for some time before complaining, by which time tempers can be short and diplomacy at a premium. 

Always start from  the assumption that your neighbour is probably unaware of the problem - don't fly off the handle – once that happens it’s all uphill trying to get something done!

Politely persuading your neighbour to co-operate is the first essential. If you succeed this will save much trouble and expense. 

Don't lose your temper. Calling in the landlord or your Local Authority or threats of legal action will seldom work and might well end up in hospital – either with stress and high blood pressure or a broken nose ... instead try inviting them down to your flat for a coffee whilst you walk about upstairs or play the stereo or slam the doors as they do. 

They may be surprised at their lack of privacy.  It's well worth working at being friendly - and have your Neighbour Noise Consultant's survey to show them – sometimes a minor change can cost little or nothing and yet be very effective.
