Schubert Rd what is an acceptable amount of noise from a neighbour?
Last Thursday night there was a party at a block of flats at the end of my road. It started late, and I was woken around 11:30 p.m. by very loud music, which continued into the early hours. Cars were arriving and leaving throughout the night, a truck was unloading, and groups of men were standing in the road, some smoking drugs right outside my bedroom window. The next morning I found an unpleasant “surprise” in my front garden and the whole road was strewn with rubbish. I had hoped it was a one-off, but it is now Friday evening (6 p.m.) and the same thing has started again. The music is extremely loud, with vibrations from the speakers carrying into my home. I don’t want to stop people from having fun, but this level of noise unacceptable, especially for those living next to the block. When is it okay to complain and what can be done about it?
