Sound deadening with plasterboard walls
Hi all,
Sorry if this is a repost - having trouble getting my news server to accept posts :-( -- Unfortunately my house is part assembled using these rather nasty plasterboard stud partition walls between the rooms. This did not used to be a problem, but one of my lodgers appears to be a little on the deaf side and watches the TV at quite a loud volume, and always talks very loudly on the phone. (he stays with me during the week and returns home at weekends to the kids, so I am guessing that he is used to having to talk over the kids). Infact one day when I was walking back to the house, and he was in the kitchen on the phone (which is at the back / side of the house) I was able to hear him!!! Is there anything that I can insert into the gap between the plasterboard to help deaden the sound - maybe like a spray in foam or something? Alternatively I guess I could chop out his tongue and get him some headphones for the tv! :-) Cheers, Matt |
