Currently doing a refurb and trying to soundproof (well, not completely) the necessary party walls where I can. In the dining room I can only afford to lose 25mm max on the party wall due to the configuration of the stairs. Is it worthwhile dot and dabbing some 12.5mm acoustic board or will it be a complete waste of time?
Party wall acoustic board?

Their thinnest suggestions are about 50mm.
I suspect a layer of acoustic plasterboard will not make much difference. But it might depend on what sort of noise you're concerned about, and what the construction of the current wall is.

I suppose you could ask the neighbours if they'd let you do their walls!
