Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council

Are there alternatives to making a noise complaint?

Noise disputes are often resolved informally. Legal action should be a last resort as it is unpleasant and will inevitably further sour the relationship between you and your neighbour.

It is very important that you do your best to resolve any problems in a friendly way.

'Unite' a local mediation service can help in the resolution of neighbour disputes.
