It is a rural area and all blocks are 1 acre in size, about 3 blocks up from us (only 1 of them has a house on it inbetween) some kids have a buggy which they drive around their block during the day which i don't mind. The issue is they have started doing it at 10pm at night which is a bit of a pain. Being a rural area i can understand to a certain degree and don't want to make a big thing about it. I was looking to do the wall anyway as want to make a courtyard as the neighbors look into our outdoor area but figured i would do the two birds one stone so to speak. Our land is slightly lower and we are about 100m away I was hoping to get some ideas or real life designs that have worked for other people? Thanks Everyone, Phil Re: Sound Proof, Screening, Fence, Ideas, Stories 2Mar 27, 2014 3:17 pm I would ask the council as noise pollution laws would apply at some point in the evening. Not sure a fence would do the trick. If you are inside and can still hear it maybe you can look at double glazing. Have you spoken to them?? Re: Sound Proof, Screening, Fence, Ideas, Stories 3Mar 27, 2014 4:38 pm Yeah have double glazing already and going to speak to them this weekend. They normally have a fire outside on a Sat night so thought I would wonder over with a beer. Was going to do a court yard (neighbours look through our back windows when outside) anyway and was thinking soundproofing at the same time would be a plus if possible. I am assuming the two neighbours less that 15m away are not keen on the noise as well Cheers, Phil Re: Sound Proof, Screening, Fence, Ideas, Stories 4Mar 27, 2014 4:48 pm Sounds like an easily solved discussion. Or maybe buy a sand rail and join them Re: Sound Proof, Screening, Fence, Ideas, Stories 5Mar 27, 2014 5:18 pm Yeah would be fun, problem will be very young kids not sleeping = sad Hi We have a road close to our place and only an old flimsy wooden fence between us and the Neighbour closest to the road.
