The dramas come thick and fast. Anyone on here had experience of noise polluting neighbours at the wee hours on an almost daily basis? In our brand new peaceful cul-de-sac of flats and small houses, we've somehow ended up above the one ****ing menace who waits til midnight (at the earliest) to start playing computer games (we think) on a booming surround sound type system. Our lass had experienced it first, saying at that after midnight every night there was loud noises and music and whatever coming through. I'd normally passed out asleep by then. Then, 4am this morning, I was woke up by the most ridiculous noise I've ever heard. Whatever system they've got, it must have cost some money because it was very loud and very clear. Think I've broken my hand smashing my fist onto the floor to get them to shut up. It worked in the end, after they'd turned it down a touch twice, and then off completely finally. Seriously ****ing inconsiderate and anti-social. Next time it happens, 'cos it will, I'll go knocking on the door and take my life into my hands, because they look like a right set of ugly, dodgy chavs - but the problem needs to be confronted. After that? At what point is it correct to inform the Police? Do they still do ASBOs? How much do they cost? I want to buy one for someone. Seriously is a very depressing thing that's happening though. Whoever they are, they're obnoxious, inconsiderate and anti-social arseholes who clearly have nowhere to be every morning so have nothing better to do than stay up all night keeping the rest of us awake. Done a bit of research and believe the proprietor of said property is a City fan, potentially a fairly prominent one, though I'm not sure. So if it's you, and you are on this forum, **** you. Learn some manners. Don't think Chazz would stand for this ****. Anyone had similar experiences?
Leaflet I have says if you want to report neighbourhood nuisance to hull city council you can in the following ways 01482 300300 Www.hullcc.gov.uk [email protected] [email protected] hope this helps
New development? Do you have a Management Association responsible for upkeep? If you do, email them, remind them its confidential and get them to sort it out. Otherwise, slip a note through the ****ers letterbox along the lines of "You are pissing the rest of the residents off, either turn your ****ing speakers down or we will set fire to your flat". Failing that, contact (sorry about this....) the council, there should be a Noise Abatement Officer. https://www.gov.uk/how-to-resolve-neighbour-disputes/complain-about-noise-to-the-council I feel your pain. Oh the letter, other option is to spray paint the message on his door. In red paint.
Many thanks. It's not a new property no, just new to us. I get the feeling that last night was just a temporary reprieve and sterner force needs to be used. Thought about writing '*****' on his front door, but that's obviously very wrong. Thanks, that's very helpful.
They may not be aware the noise travels through the property ,i ave kids that don't understand the volume of their games and voices as they play online , Seriously though , have you spoken to them ? the vast majority of the world wants to get on with the neighbour and most will be helpful in a compromise .
Party this can only be sorted one way you need to face the **** and have it out. Happened to me a few years ago when a couple moved next door and thought they could play meatloaf at stupid a clock.Got the landlord involved then the police only to be told it would be months before anything would happen .So one sunday after another **** night sleep i saw him walk to his shed to cut the grass at 8am . my head just went jumped over the fence collared him we both ended up in hospital nothing serious but the noise stopped and 5 months later they moved.
As your name suggests, I thought you would like a bit of late night P.A.R.T.Y action!!!! All joking aside, I agree with HU7tiger, you probably have to confront them. Maybe just have a quiet word the first time to see if that nips it in the bud, if not escalate it to gladiator lawnmower wars (like dual stick, only with blades). The Peado on the door would be my 3rd step!
Maybe they're covering up noisy sex?? Bit O/T but have people been reading that in HDM? kinell http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Mark...-begging-men/story-21263849-detail/story.html Its a tricky one Party are you the only adjacent flat? If they dont look reasonable then a letter through the door politely asking them to keep it down?
Kids' stuff, Party. My neighbour accused me of pumping 'noxious fumes' through the wall and into his house! Started suddenly, went on for weeks until I involved the agent and then it ended. Neighbour is as good as gold again....
Old Bill won't be interested, they have no powers in relation noise pollution. It's a noise related council matter, you should contact the Riverside ASB team through the 300300 and get them to open a case. That's option 1. Option 2 is to go 'round and stick the norry on every **** in the gaff. I'd go option 2.
I had a twat in a flat above me some years ago who used to come home from work about half five and stick ****ing Tupac on ear-bleedingly loud. That bloody "California" song, over and over again. ****ign torture. So one day I selected the noisiest record I could find in my collection - Pantera as it happens - whacked it on the stereo, turned it up to full volume (and believe me, that was ****ing LOUD), then went out to the pub for a couple of pints while the stupid knobber got acquainted with Pantera whether he liked it or not. It didn't stop the commercial rap ****, but it made me chuckle.
When I had my London flat, there was a bloke next door that used to play Reggae full blast every night. I asked him to turn it down a bit, he did, then he'd wait ten minutes and then he'd turn it back up. So one night, I put my guitar amp on full blast, put the speaker against the other side of his lounge wall and gave him a good hours worth of punk classics.
I think a polite word goes a long way. He's more likely ignorant or stupid than an absolute twat, so take a chance on a quick chat asking him to be reasonable. Only time I ever had this 'problem' was when I lived in a huge house converted into 6 flats. A couple of young girls (early 20's) lived below me and a previous MissFT. They kept us up, mostly at weekends, when one or both of them brought a gentleman friend home. Not to be crude but the one directly below us often sounded like she was being fingered by an elephant.
Punching the floor did the trick in the end last night, at the expense of my wrist. I don't want to be doing that at 4am every day though. We're gonna put a polite note through the door, see what happens. If it carries on, we'll see. It's an emotive thing I suppose as if you are awoken at **** o'clock and need to be up at 6.30, anger might over and you start kicking the ****ing door in. Hope they're reasonable, otherwise I'll turn it up a notch myself.
It sounds as though the people below don't sleep normal hours. Work out when they're probably asleep. Put your speakers face down on the floor. Turn up the volume. Try some heavy metal or something. They'll get the message.
I went through a phase of listening to a genre of music called Grindcore. It's sheer noise. I may still have some CDs.
If the reasonable approach doesn't work, and you don't like confrontation yourself, another option would be to invite Carmine around for a friendly beer. One meeting with him in his grey joggers and off white wife beater vest glaring at them should do it. Edit: I forgot to mention that the downside to this plan would be CG would then know where you live.
"Panama" by Van Halen worked with Manuel Noriega but my preference would be "Die you bastard" and "Dancing on you grave" by Motorhead-subtle!
Go and ask him politely during the day, that he's keeping you awake on a night with his system. If you confront him on a night it's more likely to end in a cell, as you'll be fuming and he / they might be pissed. If he ignores you and carries on. Wait til it stops one night and in the early hours mastic the ****'s front door shut
