To report serious issues with neighbours, follow the relevant guidance.
If you are unsure of your neighbour's tenure (for example council tenant, private tenant, owner-occupier and so on) call our contact centre on 03452 777 778 or use the Angus Council enquiry form.
Council tenant
To report serious issues with neighbours who are council tenants:
- call our contact centre on 03452 777 778 or
- complete our online enquiry form
This includes antisocial behaviour (behaviour which is causing you alarm or distress).
Private tenant
If a tenant or visitor is engaging in antisocial behaviour at a private rented property, the landlord has a responsibility to take all reasonable steps to deal with the behaviour.
If a landlord fails to take these steps, we can issue an anti-social behaviour notice.
This requires the landlord to take reasonable steps to deal with the antisocial behaviour within a specific period.
If a landlord does not take the actions detailed in the notice, we can apply to the court for a rent penalty notice or a management control order against the landlord.
For further advice, call our contact centre on 03452 777 778 or use the Angus Council enquiry form.

Due to reduced financial resources we will no longer carry out investigations for owner-occupiers’ complaints of anti-social behaviour against other owner-occupiers.
