Out of hours professional witnessing service: Fridays & Saturdays, 10pm – 3am
We work in partnership with a professional witnessing agency who are on-call for our residents between 10pm – 3am on Friday and Saturday nights. If you ring us to report excessive noise or other antisocial behaviour during these times, you will be put through to the professional witness on call, who can then arrange to visit your home or neighbourhood to listen to or witness what’s happening.
They will not be able to take immediate action, but if necessary, they can provide us with a witness statement and professional evidence to help us take enforcement actions against breaches of tenancy.
