The problem is noise transmission between the flats.

The stud wall in the attic was put in as a precursor to giving one of the flats a loft conversion. Putting in the stud wall made no difference to the sound transmission so the assumption is that the sound transmission is through the dividing wall on the ground floor rather than up through the ceiling across the attic and down to the next flat. The floors of both flats are concrete on earth and the external walls are 500mm stone / rubble walls.

What would be the best way to sound insulate the dividing wall without losing too much space and without needing a second mortgage. Preferably with any work being done from one side only.]]>
