Environmental Noise Solutions Limited (ENS) is a well-established independent acoustic consultancy based in Doncaster, with additional offices in Sheffield and Leeds. Founded in 2003, we’ve built a strong reputation for providing practical, cost-effective noise and vibration assessments across the UK, particularly in the Midlands, Yorkshire and North of England.

ENS is offers a prompt and proactive services — proposals for new work are generally issued within one working day and we aim to carry out site surveys within two weeks of the date of instruction, to ensure clients meet tight planning deadlines and avoid costly delays.

We cover a broad range of acoustic services, including:

• Environmental noise assessments for planning applications.
• BS 4142 and BS 5228 assessments for industrial and construction sites.
• BREEAM acoustic credits such as Hea 05 and Pol 05.
• Noise at work assessments for employers.
• Sound insulation testing for Building Regulations compliance (Part E).

ENS work with a wide variety of clients — from local developers and architects to FTSE-listed companies and local authorities. Because we’re independent and not tied to any other design disciplines, we give honest, practical advice, even if it means recommending design changes to ensure compliance with noise limits. All our staff are qualified acousticians and all members of the Institute of Acoustics (IOA) with the company itself being a member of the Association of Noise Consultants (ANC).

ENS are a great example of a medium sized acoustic consultancy providing a personal service — offering reliable, expert advice that helps keep projects on track, planning officers satisfied, and local residents protected from noise.
