What is the Law on silence in an apartment building

For the peace of mind of citizens living in an apartment building, the law on Silence has been adopted by the legislation of the Russian Federation. On the basis of FZ-52, citizens can defend their own rights if they believe that they are being violated.

When accepted?

Federal Law No. 52 was adopted on March 12, 1999. According to its amendments in 2017, the quiet time in apartments starts at 23.00 and ends at 7.00.

The noise level must not exceed the legal limits:

from 7.00 to 23.00 - up to 40 decibels;
from 23.00 to 07.00 - up to 30 decibels.

An example of how to understand the noise level in decibels: a car alarm near a residential building makes sounds at 80-100 dB.

If someone has broken your silence, especially at night, you can contact the district police officer. Based on the provisions of the Silence Law, you can punish the offender. The law on silence in an apartment building allows citizens to designate a time frame for permissible noise.

On a note! With the same number, the essence of the Federal Law "On sanitary and epidemiological well-being." don't confuse them!

Repair in an apartment when the law allows noise in 2018

If you are doing repairs in accordance with all laws and regulations, and you are being wrongfully complained about, read the article on what to do if your neighbors complain about noise. ⇐ How to protect your rights and where to complain If you are bothered by noise from your neighbors, there are several ways to restore justice:

Agree.
Complain to Rospotrebnadzor.
To call the police.
Go to court.

When it is better to agree It is known that repair is not a process, but a state. So just because your neighbor was tempted to make repairs just when you decided to take a nap, does not mean that sometime in the future you will not drop the drill, frightened by the knock of an angry neighbor on your door.

It should be borne in mind that according to the sanitary rules of any region, noise pollution from most construction equipment is higher than permissible at any time of the day.

Is it possible to do repairs on the weekend? holiday repair bill

So, for example, in both 2017 and 2018, repair work is prohibited in Moscow from 19 to 9 o'clock, as well as from 13 to 15 o'clock on weekdays. And on Saturday, Sunday and other non-working days, it is generally impossible to make noise with construction equipment. The only exceptions are new buildings, which are not more than 1.5 years old.

It is understandable, because at this time all the happy owners of a new home put it in order, and the knock of a hammer is heard everywhere. The only holiday when noise is allowed throughout Russia is January 1.

Here the logic of the legislator is also clear - no matter how many prohibitions there are, they will definitely make noise on the New Year holiday.⇒ We recommend reading: how to measure the noise level from neighbors at home. ⇐ Responsibility for violation of the Law on Silence For violation of the noise regime, administrative liability is provided, and in special cases, termination of the tenancy agreement.

Legislative regulation of the issue

When carrying out repairs, legal regulations must be observed. According to the sanitary and epidemiological requirements governing the rules for living in apartment buildings, a certain sound level is allowed, and it should not exceed forty decibels. This condition is provided for all regions of the Russian Federation.

The Housing Code spells out human rights to carry out repairs. According to its legislative acts, restrictions have been introduced on the time when it is possible to repair premises in residential buildings.

The procedure for carrying out such types of work is regulated by state regulations:

Federal Law No. 52, which provides for permissible hours when an increase in the degree of sound is permissible.
In accordance with Government Decree No. 354 and No. 58, indicating the boundaries of loudness when performing redevelopment and restoration of premises.
Sanitary standards: 2.2.4 / 2.1.8.562-96.
The Civil Administrative Code establishes measures of violations and liability for repair work.

Time limits

In many subjects of the Russian state, there are rules regarding the noise level:

On weekdays, repairs are allowed to be carried out from nine in the morning until seven in the evening. Any activities must be carried out strictly at the specified time.
On holidays, on Saturdays and Sundays, repairs are prohibited.
Noisy nighttime activities must not be performed before 8:00 am and completed after 20:00 pm. The same requirements apply to the import of building materials and the removal of waste.

Continuous noisy work should not last more than six hours. If much more time is required, for example, a day, be sure to enter a break, lasting from one hour.

For some regions of Russia, it is possible to carry out repairs in the apartment until eight o'clock in the evening, the use of combustible substances - only on weekdays until four in the afternoon. In certain cities of our country, it is formally allowed to carry out repair work on premises belonging to residential apartment buildings on Saturdays. But if such an activity creates a loud sound, it is allowed to be carried out only from nine o'clock in the morning.

By law, night hours start at 23.00 in the evening and end in the morning at seven o'clock. No noise is allowed during this time. Only a quiet conversation with a volume indicator not exceeding thirty decibels is allowed. Accordingly, during the night period, it is impossible to carry out repair work, assemble furniture, as well as other construction and reconstruction activities.

Is it possible to do repairs on weekends in Lipetsk

Grounds for a complaint to Rospotrebnadzor A complaint to Rospotrebnadzor should be made when the violation of the silence regime occurs systematically. For example, a neighbor is engaged in carpentry in his apartment and makes a lot of noise every day, including during the day when, according to regional laws, it seems to be not prohibited. In such a situation, real responsibility will come only in case of systematic violations. And to fix them, you will need to measure their strength, as well as the conclusion of a specialist about their excessiveness. This can only be done by a special body in the field of supervision over compliance with sanitary rules - Rospotrebnadzor. In order for him to protect your rights, you must write a complaint in which you describe in detail on what days and at what time the neighbor bakes you with construction noise.Without the knowledge of the violator, the supervisory authority will measure the noise level near the neighbor's apartment, and, based on the data received, draw up an act.

Definition of concepts

As for constant noise, during the day it can be equal to no more than forty, and at night - up to thirty decibels.

For example, the sound of a quiet whisper reaches thirty decibels, a car engine - forty, a working vacuum cleaner - seventy. The raised tones during a quarrel are seventy-five decibels; in a jet aircraft, the noise level corresponds to one hundred and forty decibels. For human hearing, sound from 120 to 130 dB is considered a pain threshold. The presence of people during such a sound for more than fifteen minutes can cause physical and mental disorders of their body.

A drill during operation reproduces a sound equal to at least ninety decibels, a hammer drill has a noise level of one hundred and ten or more decibels. The operation of these tools violates the rules regarding neighbors in an apartment building. Noise-suppressing devices are used to avoid causing discomfort to other residents of the house.
