We consider DIY as normal household noise and we will not usually deal with it as anti-social behaviour.

See our Neighbourhood Management Policy below on steps you can take to try to discuss this with your neighbours.

There are very few times where it may be considered as anti-social behaviour, for example when it takes place between the hours of 11pm and 8am. Or where it meets the noise limits detailed in the Noise section of this anti-social behaviour directory.
