Noise and Anti Social Behaviour

When living in a shared building or complex, it is inevitable that you will experience some level of noise at times. However, there are clauses within all leases around the level of noise that is acceptable.

– Your lease will state that there should be no loud use of appliances such as a television, radio, digital equipment or speakers. This prohibition also extends to loud conversations, singing, musical instruments, mechanical noises or any other sound producing apparatus or form.

– If this guidance is not adhered to then you may be subject to a monetary fine, plus administration charges will be added to the service charge account or if you are a tenant you deposit may not be returned.

Please consider your neighbours and as a courtesy let them know if there will be a high level of noise for a short time period.
