Would be interested in getting more advice on where to purchase and how to fit, anyone?I think u can buy a sound insulating board similar to plaster board,u can line ur walls with this.
Yep painfully aware that of course noise will travel to neighbours house in similar way. However, the level of noise that can be heard is really not acceptable. ie. conversationsounds to me that the people who are posting about noise from neighbours are not taking into account that these people may also hear you..its not about the noise they make next door ,its about the building and insulation,they are probably just getting on with their lives but to you its heightend noise,its was called when some sub standard houses were built..semi detacted living
No they don't seem to have a hollow sound and am thinking it is not dry lined. Would this make a big difference?
When you say check the measurements, comparing top and bottom, how do you see the botttom? (Sorry if that's a silly question)
One other thing, somebody said that many builders may not bother putting in the fibreglass insulation in the floorboards/around the joists, saying that they may not bother if it was not in the specification. If they havn't would this make a huge difference if we put in now?
conversation noise is not acceptable.what do you want your neighbours to do?not speak?

Like another poster mentioned about the dish washer being loaded and he wanted to move,but the neighbour im sure wouldnt be doing this to annoy him..
The problems isnt the neighbour but the building and if he moved he may have the same semi detached noise level..
I too live in a semi, concrete construction no plasterboard. The party wall is a 9" block on the flat with a plaster finish. House 4/5 years old. The noise from next door is appalling!
Is there any "good" alternative for party wall construction? How do they construct dividing walls in apartments on the continent? I've never noticed noise transmission abroad!
Any engineers or builders care to comment??
Have come to the conclusion that the only option is to move home to a detached house but this will have to wait due to cost.
These are insulated slabs (I think) also called Thermal liners.I think u can buy a sound insulating board similar to plaster board,u can line ur walls with this.
