Sound Proofing

[katiegrove]

Hello, does anyone have experience or recommendations for soundproofing walls? I live in a Victorian terrace and my bedroom is next to the living room of our neighbours (whose terrace has been converted into flats). They seem to be up at all hours and regularly play loud music until midnight so i?m Trying to find a solution, the walls seem paper thin!

I used No More Noise to soundproof three ceilings and several walls in my flat (https://www.checkatrade.com/NmnSoundproofing/). They were very efficient and tidy and the reduction in noise levels was as they promised. It probably won't be cheap, but from personal experience it is money well spent when you can get some peace and quiet and sleep better. Ask for Hein or Grant.

Silly question, but have you tried talking to the neighbours about it?

They may well not realise that they are disturbing you, or that their living room is next to your bedroom (though in my experience sound travels in weird ways in Victorian terraces even if they are not converted into flats).

If politely asked to keep the noise level down - or off - after a reasonable hour (11pm?) they might do that. Or you could suggest they listen to the music on headphones?

You could (if you felt comfortable about it) ask them into your room to listen to how loud their music sounds on the other side of their wall?

If they are amenable to taking some steps to reduce or eliminate the noise, it would save you the time and expense of having to soundproof your side?

Good luck!
