Say Goodbye To Noisy Neighbours With Secondary Glazing
Whether you have recently moved house, or got new neighbours, noisy ones can be extremely annoying. Whether it’s when you’re trying to relax in the evenings or weekends, or working from home, long term noisy neighbours can be exhausting.
Noisy neighbours can also cause a number of health problems that can impair your mood and sleep. In this new post, we talk about how noise pollution can affect your health and how secondary glazing can help in the long run.
The hidden toll of noisy neighbours
Not only is a good night’s sleep something that everyone feels they need, it is actually proven by experts. The average person needs around 8 hours a night to function properly, and the long term health impacts of not getting that can be daunting. They include anxiety, depression, diabetes and even heart disease.
No matter how they are being noisy, loud neighbours can really start to impact your life. Whilst we understand the occasional noise is unvoidable, long-term from TVs, parties, music or day to day shouldn’t be something you need to deal with. Protect your mental and physical health by reducing this noise.
What can you do?
If you are dealing with ongoing disturbances, then there are a few things you can do. The first is to have a word with your neighbours – as there is a high chance they are simply unaware of how much their noise is being carried.
If you’re having no luck with that, then one next step could be to seek a mediator, ideally an independent one. Hopefully, this will lead to an amicable solution, but in the likely scenario it doesn’t help, you can contact your local authority. In the UK, the law is that you can file a nuisance complaint, if the ongoing noise is disrupting your daily life. This is because it can pose a risk to the health of the family.
How secondary glazing can help
One very good method of reducing this noise, if you have had no luck with the rest of the suggestions, is to get secondary glazing units installed. These are a great if you want a cost-effective method of soundproofing your property, but also improving your home in other ways. They work in almost all buildings and involve adding a secondary pane to your existing windows.
Secondary glazing is great at soundproofing your property by create a sound insulating air gap between the panes. This air gap is great at breaking up the soundwaves, reducing them by the time they go through the second pane. They are good at reducing sound by around 50 decibels or around 80% in some cases, helping you create a serene space.
