Acoustics

How we can help
Noise Assessments
Our Noise Assessments evaluate the impact of noise on noise-sensitive locations to meet specific criteria. Our reports offer practical recommendations to comply with British Standards, best practices, and local authority criteria, ensuring negative effects from noise are minimised during planning and licensing applications.
Environmental Noise Surveys
We conduct precise environmental noise surveys to measure the acoustic environment in a given location utilising advanced technology and industry standards for optimal results. Our surveys provide data for use in our technical reports and can guide commercial decision-making.
Renewable Energy Noise
We analyse the noise impact of renewable energy projects like Wind Farms, Solar PV sites, Battery Storage, Hydrogen Power Plants and more. Our assessments ensure compliance with local regulations and standards for acoustic design and assist our clients with commercial decision-making.
Residential Development Noise
Our residential noise assessments help to identify potential noise constraints that may arise from the development of a new residential scheme or master plan. We provide practical strategies in accordance with BS8233, BS4142 and ProPG to uphold residential amenity, meet client requirements and incorporate good acoustic design wherever possible.
Planning & Licensing Noise
We provide noise assessments and reports to support planning and licensing applications for a wide range of projects. Our expertise helps ensure compliance with national planning practices, local regulations and industry standards.
Building & Architectural Acoustics
Our building and architectural acoustics services help ensure cost-effective, acoustic solutions in a wide range of buildings and spaces. We work with architects, designers, and contractors to provide practical solutions that enhance acoustic performance and reduce noise, whilst achieving regulatory compliance.
Featured Projects
Minety - Solar Farm
We carried out the noise assessment for the 50MW Minety Solar Farm in Wiltshire as part of the planning process. Our work focused on understanding and managing any potential impact on nearby homes and the local environment. This included baseline monitoring, detailed modelling, mapping and clear mitigation advice to support a smooth path through planning.
Minety - BESS
We delivered the noise assessment for the EU’s largest battery storage project at Minety Substation in Wiltshire. With four phases in total and three already operational, we worked closely with the local council to assess the combined impact and support planning approval. Through detailed monitoring, modelling and mitigation, we helped keep the project on track while making sure sound was never an issue.
Seaton Quays - Residential
We supported the Seaton Quay residential project with acoustic consultancy from design through to delivery. Our work ensured compliance with Approved Documents E and O, helping manage noise alongside overheating risks. We also assessed heat pump noise across all properties in line with industry guidance. The project has delivered 90 new sustainable homes to Seaton, transforming a long-neglected brownfield site.
