Noisedirect is an independent and impartial advice line for anyone who needs assistance with any type of noise issue. Our team of experienced Consultant Environmental Health Professionals will listen carefully to your noise problem and provide you with sensible practical advice. We are unbiased and do not represent or promote the interests of any other organisations, local Councils or other agency. Our advice is based purely on a sound professional assessment of your case.

Our Consultants will help noise sufferers identify solutions for their noise problem. Whether your noisy neighbour is disturbing you by playing loud music or happens to be a large multi-national company, excessive noise from domestic or commercial premises can be deemed a statutory nuisance. We can advise you of your rights under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and explain how to take preventative action.

Our advice can assist responsible individuals who wish to prevent disturbance to others from their noisy activities. We can help business owners to reduce the impact of noise on residents. If you are unfortunate enough to already be faced with formal action from a Council in the form of a Section 80 Noise Abatement Notice under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, we can provide you with informed and structured assistance.

Our service can be accessed by contacting us on our low cost national advice line for an economical fixed fee interview. Discuss any noise issue under a fixed rate scheme in a confidential interview with an experienced Environmental Health Professional.

Alternatively you can email or write to us to arrange for one of our experienced Consultants to contact you to discuss your noise requirements, including using our fixed fee service.
