    Actually they don't. And if you read my post, you would come to the same conclusion that I've come to - you're absurdly wrong.


    read your post .... i'm not wrong.

    [HTML]In the case of noise nuisance being caused by individuals in private rented accommodation, the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 imposes minimum statutory obligations on landlords and tenants of private residential tenancies. Tenant obligations under the Act include an obligation not to engage, or allow visitors to engage, in anti-social behaviour which is defined as including persistent noise that interferes with the peaceful occupation of other dwellings in the neighbourhood. The Act also imposes an obligation on landlords to enforce the tenant obligations. [/HTML]

    Thank gwad we have nice neighbours ! I have yet to hear a peep out of any of them ! We had a BBQ there a few weeks ago, it was near 10pm and I was starting to flap about the lads drinking outside, talking, laughin I know their kids were in bed etc etc. So carted them off into the kitchen, drinking well into the morning 2am.

    The following day I met the neighbours and was all sheep like thinking the worse, said I had a BBQ and said sorry if it was loud etc they thought we were finished at 10pm !

    What happened to the OP is not on at all. I know I will regret typing this but a typical Polish reaction, most of the men are very aggressive. You did the right thing, call the cops next time, don't even bother calling in asking for the music to get turned down.

    Oh and Bull you realise we aren't talking about you, we're talking about the case in the OP. I could care less what you do in your home right this minute: the Polish lads are Renting. The Legislation applies.

    As for you though, since you're interested:
    Private Home-Owner:

    If the person causing a noise nuisance is a private home owner then obviously the potential remedies outlined above do not apply. In this case, the person experiencing the noise nuisance will have to avail of the remedy provided under the Noise Regulations whereby any individual person, or a local authority, may complain to a District Court seeking an Order to deal with the noise nuisance.
    http://www.environ.ie/en/Environment/NoiseIssuesConsultationPaper/NeighbourhoodDomesticNoisePollution/

    None of which states you may do as you please. You are still answerable to the district court, and they can command you to cease and desist.

    Of course this also means your own noisy neighbor: if they own, you can follow that piece of legislation to in turn have the District Court have them cease and desist, also.

    A Tenant Act for a Tenant Problem: the topic of the thread.

    Your own home: I've already provded you the information a moment ago. You are correct that the law is somewhat different but it is not an exemption to be as anti-social as you please with your own property. You and other Private Homeowners are still subject to district court rulings which will defend neighbors against noise pollution and anti-social behavior.

    it also seems that nobody here has ever had a party till 4-5am.

    I have been renting for the bones of 10 years now, and I can honestly say I have never had a party in any of my rented accomodation. Why? Because I cannot have one, its stipulated (sp?) in every lease that I have signed, that I am unable to have loud music, people being anti-social etc; after 9pm, and I am fine with that. I actually do care that my neighbours have a decent nights sleep, and don't have the stress and hassle of lying awake feeling the bed shake with the bass from music at a party 2 floors down, because its happened to me more times than a little and I know I wouldn't like to be the one doing this.

    I cannot condone how people feel they have the "right" to play very loud music in apartments especially, knowing that the ones built in the last few years have paper thin walls, and you can hear everything. By all means, have a party, but why have the music so so loud that people have to shout over it to speak, and that in itself is yet another problem.

    Last time I complained about music being played at 4am, my life was threatened and I was told to watch myself the next time I left the house, and twice more after that. All just because I asked for the music to be turned down. So I moved, my life is worth more than that, but in the OP's situation, he cannot do this, and having threatening and abuseive behaviour over something as trivial as loud music is madness.

    OP I don't know exactly where you live, but I found this form on Fingal County Council Website that you can record the noise over a period of time. I think you may have been provided with this form also, but here you go, another version.

    I feel your pain, and I really cannot stand this type of behaviour in anyone. And I know its terrifying to feel afraid in your own home, but I advise not to let this slide, and keep complaining to the landlord everytime they do this, and hopefully something will be done. :)

    I've had loads of parties ,but always let the neighbours know about things before hand.
    I don't think people mind when they know whats going on.
    Not every week though ,thats taking the piss.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,123 ✭✭✭stepbar


    There's a simple solution.

    Most houses have a meter box outside. Remove the fuse = Good night sleep.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,952 ✭✭✭Lando Griffin


    Hire a large sound system, place in the rooms next to the other house and go on holidays for a week putting the cd on replay and pump the music as loud as it goes. When your friend comes round to feed the cat, get him to make sure the music is still playing.

    I wouldn't quite go that far but i think your right in so far as giving the arseheads nextdoor to the OP a taste of their own medicine.

    When the OP gets up for work in the morning, choose a room upstairs as a counter-noise zone. Get a hifi/stereo (anything with good bass) place it next to the wall facing nextdoor, chuck on the some jungle classics on repeat, crank up the bass & off he goes out to work. The thing about bass noise is the outright volume doesn't need to be very high to get it thumping so the neighbors on the other side won't suffer.
    Just as the crowd nextdoor are settling off to sleep they get booming base notes reverberating throughout the house. Fcuk em.

    Sleep deprivation can cost a person their sanity. My buddy moved out of a houseshare last year because of a complete prick of a housemate who would watch TV with the sound up very loud in the room next to him, often during the week up to 4/5 in the morning.
    This colossal wanker was related to the landlord so my mate had no chance of getting rid of him & the situation started affecting his job so he just left.

    Its amazing how having an ignorant prick of nextdoor neighbor/housemate can badly affect a persons life.

    1. call the guards, call them again and keep calling them. Keeps getting complaints registered with them.

    2. find out if the landlord is registered with the PRTB - chances are he isnt. ring him and tell him to get it sorted or you will report him.

    Heard someone on the radio this morning talking about a new noise bill thats coming in where guards can give these people on the spot fines....

    Doubt that will help much in your case as you mentioned they are a group of foreign lads and renting so probably dont pay TV license, motor tax, parking fines etc anyway

    I feel very very sorry for you as I have dealt with such things in the past as well
    I would start with a phone call to socail welfare, chances are they are claiming the scratcher
    7 times using different names.
    I would then go out and purchase a sound system for about 400euro, make sure to buy 3 or 4 massive sub woofers
    when their music stops your music begins. Be sure to place these sub woofers upstairs against the wall that divides
    the house, this way the music should be be pumping into their bedrooms if they don't sleep in boxes.
    amplifier would help as well if you can afford it.
    Play Jungle music if you can ( similiar to the music in the father ted episode of the old priest that replaces
    father jack ) should be very annoying )
    Hopefully they will get the picture soon after this and don't stand for it if they don't after all you are
    irish and living in ireland so therefor you have more rights as far as I'm concerned
    Finally I heard recently you can purchase new Bose headphones that have noise cancellation reduction.
    Bascially if you wear them while on a plane the headphones take in the outside noise ( engine noise )
    and cancel it with the exact opposite tone meaning you don't hear anything at all but silence
    this works for all types of music and noise and and is even better than the ear muffs builders wear so maybe
    purchase the bose headphones that cancel out the outside noises, although why should you have to so that.

    I have a neighbor who likes to throw their dog into their back garden and it barks very loudly for hours on end.
    I just open me windows, throw my speakers ( tweeters out the windowsill and put the volume on full until it drains
    out the dog barking, shortly after they bring the dog back in.
    simple really
    fight fire with fire, don't be a pu$$y and don't stand for any of that $h!t
    Hell give me your address and I'll pop over
