I've ended up moving next to a woodworking enthusiast. Although our
properties (bungalows) are detached his garage is right next to (like
within an inch or two) of my office/spare bedroom extension.

He has equipment such as circular saw, planer, lathe etc in the garage
and the sound and vibration resonates through our house.

Of course if the properties had been built garage to garage the
problem would have been minimised but all the garages are to the left
of the properties.

Anyhow has anyone got experience on the efficacy or otherwise of
vibration pads such as

or similar, or any other ideas?

Noise reduction requires mass, isolation, stiffness, damping. Vibration is low frequency so especially needs mass. Rubber pads provide damping & a bit of mass.

Start by showing us the wall construction.

Assuming these are modern properties, I wonder if the transmission is
via the slab? Even, whether the properties share a common slab.
