Lovely thread title.

Moopy, our sound proofing in our flat is really shit. But we've never had any issues with the neighbour below us until recently.

He's going deaf so has his music very loud. Which is fine for an hour or so. But he has it on every day for about 8 hours a day. We can hear it clearly in our kitchen and living room.

A few weeks ago we sent him a very nice note and he did turn it down. But it's still loud enough for us to hear.

His daughter who visits him is aware and has said she will try and get him a hearing test, but so far he's refused one.

What else can we do? I don't want to be a bitch, but also, I don't want the enjoyment of my home ruined because I have to hear his shit music all day every day.

We have an arsehole loud neighbour. At his worst in the summer he has socials in his back garden almost every night. For some reason we now hear him in house, which was never a thing before. The three hour phone call at top volume at 3am just after Christmas, while I had pneumonia was a low point. He takes a lot for Mr Ag to get annoyed by someone, but he's fully onside now.

We'd complained a few times, but it never dramatically improved.

He tried to talk to me over the fence about a month ago, just about the gardens (we normally have a decent enough relationship, we've had a drink together before). I pretended I didn't hear, as by that point I'd had enough. We then got a poorly written note through the letterbox, part grovelling, part accusatory. I never responded, and to my surprise, he does seem to have simmered down somewhat.

Oh yeah, he's 62.

I have a neighbour who has loud angry phonecalls with people at 3 in the morning. I think he's the one who got nicked a couple of months back but he's back having a shout at someone this morning.

I'm not really sure what the guidelines are on noise levels from neighbours. We've both downloaded a decibel checker and in our living room with his music on its about 40, at worst it was 60, but outside his front door was 90!

I don't want to fall out with him but also we're selling soon and I don't want potential buyers put off by his noise.

There's annoyingly little noise rules outside of unsociable hours. And even then it's sketchy.

What was he accusing you of

So we're best off trying to handle it nicely I guess.

Asked for: two more weeks if vacations.

Got: minimum two nights in the hospital due to a rapidly emerging abscess underneath my left eye.

THAT’S NOT HOW THIS IS MEANT TO WORK.
