Have you considered fixing the problem, rather than patching the
symptom?



I spoke with my landlord and he says there's nothing we can do about
the pipes noise. I could never understand why the noise got so much
worse for no apparent reason.



If (and it's a big IF) the pipe noise is due to the need for a pressure
regulator, you MIGHT find it's cheaper to have a plumber install one,
compared to your soundproofing idea. Did you landlord have a plumber take a
look at the situation? Is there a regulator in place? They generally look
like this one:

If you insist on pursuing the soundproofing idea, you may as well do it
right, with products like this:
