Acoustic Consultancy Services
At Peak Acoustics we offer a full spectrum of Acoustic Consultancy, Acoustic Design, Noise and Vibration services.

• Planning Application Noise Survey
  Typically requested by local planning departments in order to protect dwellings from noise. We are able to discharge noise conditions through assessment and submission of a report to the planning officer.


• Noise Impact Assessments
  Full survey, assessment and reporting service of noise impact. Undertaken with a combination of on-site measurement, calculation and computer modelling. Using the latest cutting edge methods, we are able to find solutions for even the most complex noise issues.

  Constant monitoring of construction site noise allows for alerts to be raised where noise exceeds certain thresholds. By enabling construction sites to actively control noise, we empower them to minimise noise impact and the likelihood of complaints.
