    Soundproof Coach House

    I currently live in a coach house flat with an archway. As the archway is really narrow and the ceiling is low all sound bounces off and creates the same effect as say a Subway - the sound simply amplifies. It’s becoming intolerable. A ball sounds like a hammer, a motorbike makes the floor...
