Although walls and floors between our units are built to high standards, no level of building technology can make these entirely sound proof. In order for everyone to live in harmony, we must all remember that we are living in relatively close proximity to one another.
Certain habits will limit noise transmission and will make your unit and your neighbour’s unit more enjoyable, such as:
- limiting the hours for home improvements,
- not wearing hard sole shoes inside,
- ensuring appliances are in good working order, in particular the washing machine and dryer,
- being considerate while in hallways.
Also, be aware that noise on balconies readily transmits into neighbouring units.
Condominium Rules
The rules and regulations of our Condominium clearly provide for owners rights to quiet enjoyment of their unit, places the burden on the individual making noises to ensure they do not disturb their neighbours, and provides the Condominium Corporation with powers to enforce these
rules.
City Noise Bylaws
In addition to the Condominium Rules, all residents and visitors are also bound by the city noise bylaws, which restrict activities that may disturb the peace and comfort of others 11 pm and 7 am on weekdays, between 11 pm and 9 am on Saturdays, and between 12 am and 12 pm on Sundays.
Please report any noise bylaw infractions to the City, as well as to our
Property Manager.
