Noise Insight Report · £99

What is it actually like to live here?

Hear it and see it before you commit.

A modelled 24-hour profile, an audio simulation you can listen to and an aerial view with the noise mapped over your plot — because a single number never describes a day.

A day on the lane

The light, the traffic and the windows change hour by hour.

The morning peak

Traffic builds as the day starts.

The evening peak

It lands just when you want the garden.

Night, shown separately

Night hours are in grey and weighted on their own in the standards.

One number misleads

The morning peak, the plateau, the evening

The loudest hours are the morning and evening peaks — and the evening one is exactly when you want to be in the garden. Overnight the road quietens, but night-time noise carries a ten-decibel penalty in the standards, because that is when it does the most harm. That weighting is what Lden is, and it is why one daytime figure misleads.

Illustrative day — the report plots your address

Hear it, see it

Hear it before you buy

A simulation of your property, so fifty-eight decibels stops being an abstraction and becomes something you can hear — an illustrative, relative comparison, not a calibrated recording. Plus the whole day laid out hour by hour, so you can see when the road is loudest and when it quietens — night hours shown separately.

Questions listeners ask

How is the audio simulation made?

It is synthesised from your property's modelled level and source mix — real road character, not white noise. It is an illustration, not a calibrated playback: your device's own volume isn't controlled, so it can't tell you the absolute loudness you'll experience. What it does show honestly is the relative difference — how much quieter the same traffic sounds before and after modelled mitigation.

Is the 24-hour profile my road's real traffic?

It is built from the modelled flow for your dominant source, shaped by the standard diurnal pattern for that road class. Where a DfT count point sits near your road, real counted traffic anchors it — and the report labels which applies.

What does Lden actually mean?

It is the day-evening-night level: a 24-hour average that adds a 5 dB penalty to evening noise and 10 dB to night noise, because noise harms sleep more than it harms lunch. It is the number the standards weigh — and why one daytime reading misleads.

Can I send the result to someone else?

Yes — this tier includes a shareable link, made for partners, agents and solicitors. The PDF is yours to keep and forward.

About the pack →
The endgame is a measured survey.

Every AcoustaPLOT report is a desktop model — fast, honest about its uncertainty, and the right tool before a decision. Where a figure must stand up formally, for planning or a dispute, the route is an on-site measured survey by a qualified acoustician. How that works →

The Acoustic Barrier Design (£349) adds:

ISO 9613-2 barrier design · Modelled fence height / length / position · Interactive model + acoustic-shadow visual.
