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!
