Acoustic Services & Noise Impact Assessments

Why acoustic services matter

Acoustic services are essential for ensuring that residential, commercial, and industrial projects meet regulatory standards while creating environments that are both functional and comfortable. In the UK, noise and vibration assessments are frequently required as part of the planning application process, particularly for developments near sensitive locations such as schools, hospitals, and housing. By identifying potential issues early, these assessments help avoid delays, reduce the risk of costly design changes, and streamline approvals with local authorities.

Regulations and quality assurance

Meeting the requirements of key regulations such as Approved Document E for homes, Building Bulletin 93 (BB93) for educational spaces, and Health Technical Memorandum 08-01 (HTM-08) for healthcare facilities demonstrates a strong commitment to quality and safety. Proper acoustic design improves occupant wellbeing, protects privacy, and enhances the overall value of a building by ensuring sound levels are controlled and pleasant.

At enevo, our dedicated acoustic specialists combine extensive technical knowledge with practical insight. We provide detailed site assessments, accurate noise modelling, and clear recommendations tailored to the unique needs of each project.
