Reporting a complaint
At these times, the Contact Centre is experiencing high call volumes so if, at all possible, we would ask you not to call by telephone.
We would therefore ask you to support our efforts by reporting the complaint where possible via email on either pollution.control@pembrokeshire.gov.uk for commercial complaints or domestp@pembrokeshire.gov.uk for domestic complaints.
Using the Noise App for noise complaints
Where we can, we will ask complainants to log and record noise complaints via the Noise App. It will not be possible at this time to install noise kits within a property for the safety of members of the public and our own staff.
Responding to complaints
Under the circumstances, we are taking government advice and have concluded to follow this we will only able to offer limited actions in trying to resolve your complaints. These will include some form of remote communication with the alleged offender such as a letter, email or telephone call. Home visits will not be possible. Depending on the nature of the complaint we may also seek the involvement of an outside agency such as the Police, particularly of there are other concerns such as anti-social behaviour. We would therefore ask that you provide us with as much information about your complaint as possible so we can identify the alleged offender. Anonymous complaints or those where the offending site has not been identified are unlikely to be actioned.
