Guide to BS4142 Noise Assessment & Survey

Have you ever been asked to carry out a noise survey as part of a planning condition? We can help.

We at APT Sound Testing recognise that noise from industrial sites is playing an ever-growing role with planning authorities. The Central Government’s push to promote re-development of brown field sites is increasingly pushing together industrial and residential developments, where industrial noise levels and operating hours may pose a serious harm to amenity and quality of life.

With industrial and residential spaces increasingly close together, managing noise is more important than ever. BS4142 noise surveys assess how sound from plant, machinery, and commercial operations may impact nearby homes, helping you stay compliant and avoid complaints.

Our experienced consultants provide:

• Accurate background and source noise measurements
• Clear, detailed reports for planning submissions
• Noise mapping and practical mitigation advice
• Support for systems like HVAC, refrigeration, generators, and more

We use industry-leading Norsonic equipment to deliver reliable, compliant results every time.

If you’ve been asked for a BS4142 Noise Assessment, don’t leave it to chance. Get in touch today to discuss your project. We can offer a detailed survey report and outline possible mitigation measures with noise mapping to show the ‘real life’ effectiveness of the measures.

Such assessments can cover extraction systems, air conditioners, industrial plant, refrigeration units, and general use of industrial buildings.

We provide full compliant BS4142 Industrial Noise Surveys using the latest ‘state of the art’ Norsonic acoustic equipment.

If the local authority has requested you undertake a BS4142 Noise Assessment please call us now on: 01525 303905 or email us at info@aptsoundtesting.co.uk.
