Boon Lay resident buys pot, rubber chicken to retaliate against noisy upstairs neighbour, Singapore News


A Boon Lay resident who claims her noisy neighbours wake her up from sleep every night is hitting back with a metal pot or screaming rubber chicken in a “tit for tat”.

The 62-year-old factory worker, who declined to be named, told Shin Min Daily News the disturbances from her neighbours living upstairs began in 2020, when the unit at Block 186 Boon Lay Avenue was rented out.

The home frequently saw a change of tenants, she said, and she would hear noises such as the dragging of luggage at night and loud footsteps.

“The block is over 50 years old and the soundproofing is originally poor, making these noises particularly noticeable,” she lamented.

The unit is currently occupied by two couples and a child, reported Shin Min.

The woman said she often heard tiles scraping, water flushing and the thuds of objects falling on the floor. And this often occurred from 7pm to 1am, she alleged.

“I sleep poorly every day, I’m mentally drained and it’s really agonising,” she said.

Even after she reported the situation to the authorities and called the police on multiple occasions to seek help, the noises supposedly continued.
