Avoid A Possible Conviction When You Soundproof At Home

As the issue of noise has become a growing concern in the UK, so the punishments handed out by local authorities have become stricter and stricter. Anti-Social Behavioural Orders (ASBOs) are now given readily to persistent offenders, whilst others have had their possessions taken away from them and several have been issued with community service, or in some cases, sent to prison.

The UK population continues to grow at a rapid rate so it is understandable that the level of noise as a consequence has grown with it. The amount of cars, buses, motorbikes, taxis etc. has increased, as has air and rail travel.

To help accommodate these growing numbers of people, housing has also substantially increased so as you can imagine millions of people are living within very close proximity of one another….

Soundproofing Is Fit For Every Location

Excess noise can be a real pain. Not only a painful listen for our ears, but when it gets out of hand it can hugely affect our health and overall well-being. No-one should be have to put up with noise if all they want to do is relax in their chosen environment and location.

Soundproofing is a concept that many people will be aware of, but few will have actually employed to try and ward off unwanted noise. This would seem a pity as soundproofing can be installed in a huge variety of locations….

Tougher Measures Set To Be Employed Against Noisy Neighbours

The curse of the noisy neighbour has become a growing issue in the UK as the population continues to expand.
In order to try and tackle the problem, Home Secretary Theresa May has announced that police are to be given new powers to deal with anti-social behaviour, with fines of up to £2,500 issued to those found to be regularly causing noise-related problems….

Let Acoustic Supplies Deal With Noisy Neighbours

There is not a day goes by without someone contacting Acoustic Supplies and informing us of some form of noise-related issue they have with a neighbour. Disputes between neighbouring homes have grown over the past few years which is the inevitable consequence of an ever-expanding population.

Unfortunately, too many people take the law into their hands and confront their neighbours in a way deemed aggressive and forceful, when they should look to talk with them rationally to try and find a resolution. If the latter doesn’t work and you don’t have any change in luck after approaching your local council, then the next step should be to approach Acoustic Supplies….

The festival season is almost upon us. Although there is no Glastonbury this year, the festival roster still includes the following: Download, V Festival, Reading and Leeds, Bestival and Kendal Calling, not to mention The Stone Roses long-awaited reformation at Heaton Park in Manchester.

For several thousand others, particularly those who live nearby, it could be a living nightmare unless they sound proof their property in time for the summer season….

Keep It Down By Soundproofing Your Home

Working hours in the UK are as considerable as any other country in Europe. With living costs as high as ever before, many of us have to extend our normal working hours in order to make ends meet which means doing over-time and taking whatever work we can get. This means that thousands of us get very little spare time and when we do we will often spend it at home….
