Noise reduction with hardwood floor
Q: I am going to install a solid wood floor over a plywood subfloor probably using the nail down method. Can I install underlay under the floor to reduce noise?
Flooring for noise insulation
Q: We are planning to fit a wooden floor - either engineered wood or solid wood (oiled) - in our kitchen over what used to be two rooms. Part of the base is concrete and part wooden floorboards - are there any special considerations? Also can we fit anything that would give us extra sound-proofing? Not because of folks beneath us, but because our children are very noisy and our modern house with plasterboard walls does not damp the sound well? Thanks
