Sound insulation - Acoustic problems (Noisy Neighbours)
Your Ideal Home

We can hear our neighbours every movement, it is a new house and we didn't think it was going to be this loud. Is there any think that we can do Thanks, Mark

There may be something you can do, Firstly get a sound engineer to check the sound levels as there are guidelines in the building regulations also have a look at this http://www.atil.ie/isostrip-t.html http://www.moyisover.ie/calibel.htm Lisa www.furniture.ie
