Soundproof a Shared Wall
To soundproof a shared wall, there are a few simple things you can do to make a big difference. Whether you live in an apartment, have children, or have roommates living in the same house, soundproofing becomes necessary. Use this article as a guide to help you easily soundproof your shared wall.
Instructions
1. Paint the wall with Acousti-Coat. This is a type of paint that can actually block about 30% of regular nose. Talking and car noises can be reduced significantly with this simple soundproof technique.
2. Place fabric wallpaper over the shared wall to help soundproof it. The fabric muffles and absorbs the sound coming to and from your room. There are so many different wallpaper designs, you are bound to find one you like. Wall paper now-a-days isn't like it used to be. Especially online, you can find some terrific designs.
3. Place a carpet wall covering on the wall. These help muffle sound even better than fabric wall paper. You could, however, apply extra soundproof by putting the carpet covering over the fabric wallpaper.
