Noisy builders on existing properties.

Jaymack
I have had immediate neighbours carrying out building work........... an extension etc, this has been going on since April.


I appreciate that most building noise is unavoidable but loud radios and foul language is not acceptable IMO. Even when chastised, they seem to think that it is a right applicable to builders and continue.? I had to resort to loud dB's on Classic FM on a sound blaster for a few days, to get them to desist from their their music at least. Is this an indication of intelligence or upbringing, Do electricians have the same disregard for others?, would you do it? How is it prevented?

    Wow, that's deep! Is this the perspective of a veteran?


    I have met one who was deafened (utterly and completely) when a missile hit the wall behind him. His oppo, who was a few feet away retained sufficient hearing to be able to use hearing aids.


    May be not be much to do with wiring and the regs, but hearing aids and cochlear implants are electronic devices are they not?




     




    Hi Chris


    No not at all, I'm a lifelong civilian, I'm just very aware that I won the geographic lottery on the location of my existence and try to be mindful of this when I feel myself getting aggravated with first world problems, which I do, because I'm not that zen :-).


    Through another part of my life I do come into contact with many who are veterans and have heard stories such as the ones you relayed above , so am acutely aware of the fragility of life for many and I try to keep a healthy gratitude around that as well.


    As weirdbeard said, this probably isnt appropriate for this forum but I wanted to give another view on the ideas expressed with the OP as its a subject close to my heart.


    All the best
