Hi Everyone
My wife and i have recently moved into a one bedroom first floor flat.
The flat below us is being renovated and we have found that we are getting considerable noise when the guys are working or even talking!
We spoke to the owner and all he could say was the law allows him to start work at 7:00am....blah, blah.
We have therefore decided to fit some kind of acoustic flooring and hence the request for advice/help/tips.
The building was originally a large house build in 1857, having been converted in the 80's. The floors at present are 8ft x 8ft MDF-type panels. I am not sure what is inside the cavity between the ceiling below, probably nothing as a previous tenant said they used to be able to hear the person snoring in the flat below.
Therefore, i would dearly appreciate any advice/tips on materials to use, how to go about it.
I am a fair DIY'er i.e. no expert but willing to have a go.
Thanks in advance for everyone's replys..
Kind Regards
Dave
