Hello, we live in a flat that has no sound proofing whatsover. The neighbour above us has a child that constantly runs around, jumping, banging etc, the noise is horrendous at times, especially in the evening. We are only separated by floorboards. We have contacted the local authorities as they are council tenants, but they say there is nothing they can do because it isn't going on at unreasonable hours, although, they admit it is very noisy. We have spoken to the neighbour and she is aware of the problem since she has sat in our flat while her child ran around upstairs!
We have offered to get her room soundproofed, but she won't agree, we can't force her.
My question is this. Has anyone ever soundproofed their home (simular situation) and did it really help?
Thank you, any advise is most appreciated, Sharon
