- smoke
- commercial venues and events
- dust or noise from some works or equipment in the street
- fireworks at night from 11pm to 7am (excluding Chinese New Year, Diwali, New Year's Eve and November 5)
We cannot deal with noise from:
- traffic, trains and planes
- some domestic (household) noises, including:
- footsteps
- doors closing
- babies crying or children playing
- kitchen appliances being used during the day and early evening
- DIY activities in the day
You can still contact us if you have complaints about these. We may know organisations that can help.
