Noise monitoring equipment, simple hire or fully managed

Noise travels further than anything else your site produces, and it’s the impact neighbours complain about first. Our construction noise monitoring gives you continuous, real-time noise data, so you can evidence compliance and deal with complaints from a position of fact, not guesswork.

As part of our environmental monitoring solutions, we install our Enviroguard monitors at site boundaries and noise-sensitive receptors, logging levels around the clock. You can hire the equipment on its own, or go fully managed and our team handles everything for you.

Active noise monitoring, not just equipment

Choose our fully managed service and our monitoring team actively watches your noise data throughout the hire, so rising levels get spotted as they happen, not after the enforcement letter arrives.

Alerts handled by our team

On managed hires, threshold breaches alert our engineers, who send over the details and, if there’s an issue on site, come out and resolve it.

Dedicated engineering support

From siting monitors and setting trigger levels to reporting for your local authority, our monitoring engineers support you throughout, with advice grounded in BS 5228-1 and years of site experience.

Noise monitoring for Section 61 and planning compliance

Many urban projects work under a Section 61 consent (Control of Pollution Act 1974) or planning conditions setting noise limits at nearby receptors, assessed to BS 5228-1.

Our monitors log noise levels continuously against those limits, with all data available 24/7 through Insite, ready for local authority submissions and complaint investigations.

Noise monitoring equipment for construction sites, on hire

From a short demolition package to a multi-year infrastructure scheme, hiring your noise monitoring equipment keeps you flexible. Our engineers handle installation and commissioning so monitoring is live when your consent says it needs to be, and calibration, maintenance and swap-outs stay our problem, not yours.

Noise monitoring for demolition projects

Demolition is short, loud and closely watched by local authorities, so consents often set tighter noise limits and require robust records. We regularly monitor noise on demolition projects alongside dust and vibration, giving you one environmental monitoring package and one point of contact.
