Title of Question |
Improved sound insulation at Malthouse Court |
|
Issue: |
The walls between flats at Malthouse Court are very thin and poorly insulated. This increases the problem of noise from neighbours. Are there plans to improve sound insulation in flats? |

Officer Response: |
We have at this time no plans to undertake works of this nature at Malthouse Court. The construction of the block met standards at the time and retrospective works would be very disruptive to residents and it is a possible could not be undertaken. We will include an inspection in our asset stock condition survey to report and provide further information.
