Talk to your Neighbour
It may be an obvious starting point, but many complaints are often made formally in the first instance to individual Local Authority Environmental Health Departments or straight to a landlord of the property next door where it's possible you could resolve things informally.
- We recommend that you always approach your neighbour first to let them know they are making noise that is disturbing you.
Be courteous and be polite even if you're very angry that you've been kept awake for the 5th night running! There could be a good chance your neighbour may not even be aware that the noise they are making could be disturbing you.
Hopefully, pointing this out to your neighbour may solve the problem and ultimately prevent it from spiraling even more out of control.
Plan what you need to say first, take some written notes and examples of their noise nuisances with you when you call on your neighbour so you don't forget what you want to say. Try to avoid going round to your neighbour to complain about the noise when it's actually happening. Chances are if someone has been drinking or partying heavily, they're not going to want to talk to you.
