Any property owned by a housing association or council MUST be soundproofed

Closed 46 signatures

What the petition asks

No soundproofing in old flats cause arguments and stress for all tenants and local authority couldn't care less, they would SAVE money as well as tenants well being by soundproofing ALL their flats especially older converted flats.
Many have suffered and been tormented due to no soundproofing.
older converted flats due to the old law do not need to be soundproofed under building regulations however this causes problems with tenants especially living below someone who is normally living however it torments downstairs causing arguments between neighbors and mental stress that nobody needs.
Everyone deserves to live in peace and Housing associations and council do not do anything regarding this and just use money from the government to build more and neglect their older properties.
