Hi Everybody,
Live in a hundred year old mid-terrace house. We get so much noise up into our bedroom at the front from the neighbours lounge at the bottom at the front. Raised voices and laughter just carries straight up to us.
I have noticed that the front of their chimney breast has been removed in their lounge leaving just the sides to form part of some shelving. Would this lack of chimney breast have anything to do with it. Or would it just be poor sound-proofing in these old buildings.
A quick fix would be nice but maybe no such thing.
Any help would be grateful. It is becoming a nightmare to get to sleep.
Thanks
