Dear PoPville – Sound-proofing contractor

Dear PoPville,

My husband and I have been in our rowhouse for two years and we love it – except for our noisy and angry neighbors that have violent arguments. I expect to hear plenty of noise from neighbors since we live in a city within close proximity to other people. However, we’ve reached our limit with our neighbors’ disruptive behavior. (We’ve called 311 and 911 a few times and the situation isn’t improving.)

We are ready to install QuietRock and/or other sound-deadening materials (with thanks to you and your readers for the suggestions) and we need a reliable contractor who has experience with sound-proofing or is a sound-proofing specialist.

Can you or your readers recommend a contractor with sound-proofing experience? Can anyone comment on any success/disappointment they have had with sound-proofing materials?

I know this topic is brought up often, but we’d really appreciate suggestions!

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
