Hello Everyone!
I am 62 years old and have been caring for my husband for over 10 years now since he had a massive stroke. Last year a ruptured aneurysm, this heart diagnosed with heart problems. Life has been tough and worrying to the core but.....we are happy and I am so grateful I still have him.....but the noise overhead is driving us mad. The neighbours have installed wooden flooring (with the correct insulation I'm told) but to us it is a nightmare, impact noise is dreadful. No matter what I do we cannot get any help, at the moment we are practically living in the bedroom when it's quiet or the garden when our neighbours are in. Only deliberate noise is an issue apparently the council say they only have to offer adapted homes and noise isn't something they have to concern themselves with.
Human rights say we should be able to enjoy our home. I am ranting because I am exhausted through noise, has anyone had similiar experience or resolved the problem. Our ceilings have been insulated but they are not up to wooden flooring.
Anyway I'm not always this moany, sorry!
