Report business noise

If you’re being affected by noise from nearby businesses or industry, you can report it to your local council.

This includes noise from:

  • pubs or clubs
  • fire or intruder alarms
  • building sites or industry

The council will give you advice on how to resolve the problem. They may also:

  • help arrange mediation
  • issue a fine, usually a fixed penalty notice
  • issue a notice, demanding that noise either stops or is limited
