Lived in my mid terrace house for a year now. One side is an elderly couple who make no noise but the other side is family which consists of Mum and dad in their 50s and son who I estimate to be around 20. They have always been noisy, they appear to be the “go to” house for friends and family for bbqs and parties etc. Always have lots of screaming kids in the garden etc,
I don’t mind day time noise as we all have noise/families/kids etc. The thing is my bedroom is directly next the son’s bedroom and the walls aren’t that thick. He has always been a bit noisy but lately it’s been awful. One night a few weeks ago I was kept awake until around 2am with him and a mate talking/laughing loudly in his room. His voice is so deep and loud. I complained to the Mum the next day who didn’t seem that bothered but said she would have a world.
It quietened down for a few days then on the Saturday night I was woken at 1am by them shouting and being noisy etc. I wrote a note and put it in their door saying they had woken me and to keep it down after 11pm please etc. They know full well I can hear them and since I have complained it’s like the lad doesn’t care and invites his mates round to talk loudly in his room.
It’s causing me such anxiety and stress. I’m not a confrontational person and they are chavs not the nicest of people so it’s s no win situation.
This evening I was spying looking out dd’s window and could see 6 lads in the road who all went into the house next door. I have gone to bed but can hear them all in there talking loudly etc.
I am now thinking after I complained twice and been ignored i might call 101 and get police advice. They smoke weed in his room too because I can smell it and have seen one of the lads holding a massive bong as I’ve up to my front door before. His bedroom windows are left open all day I assume to air out the smell of weed.
I don’t want to go down the council route as it could prove tricky when I eventually get the chance to sell up and move. I think their house is either council rented or council bought I’m sure.
