(D.I.Y not fit!)
Hi, I was just after some advice. Recently we had a new neighbour move into the block of flats we live in (private wanted property) the issue is over the past ..well over a month the neighbours been having extremely noisy work done and sound travels so easily (you can hear next door sneeze\their toilet flush for example) no common courtesy to let others in the building know either to say about this not that they have to but as a common courtesy as they've been here a while so know how easy sound travels in the block. I also have a child with send needs and sensory disorder linked up to it so to say their not coping well with the noise is a understatement (home learning so is at home during the day) but the work is being carried out by builders and by the neighbour themself and so it's EVERY DAY well has been just 2 days of no noise since started. I spoke with the neighbour and was informed it's be ongoing for several more months as the previous tenants apparently left it in a state when I asked and the attitude seemed to be tough it's not anti social hours (to be fair this has been true so far until recently but no proof it is them just a idea when hearing it in the evenings also recently) but a bit off that attitude especially as I myself was being calm,reasonable and just asking a question but also pointing out it's happening Monday to sunday so unfair to others in the building who may be home (we have neighbours who work nights too for example) Just wondering where do we stand in this? As my landlord said it's classed as a noise distrurbance as is excessive noise as daily but not much they can do as not their tenant doing it, I've put a complaint into the council also as it's daily and extremely loud and the neighbours attitude showed they wouldn't be open to a compromise. I've recording of the noise and kept a diary as suggested by a family member for a noise disturbances complaint but really what other options are there as we're having to leave the house all day and spend money in cafes etc with Wi-Fi to get work done when no tables in the library again not a ideal situation. Thank you for any advice
