I used to live in a single home and moved away because of noise from bars, drunks, busy road, loud music. I found a nice apartment in a quiet area only to have upstairs neighbors stomping, banging, slamming, smashing things constantly day and night. I've come to the conclusion any place with people near by will be noisy and thinking about getting myself a tent and living in the wilderness.

We feel so bad for you Robert! Thankfully we live on the top floor but we still know our downstairs neighbour's routine. It sure adds to your stress levels and destroys your sleep cycle. Time to have a little chat!

It also depends on the building quality. They installed carpets in every bedroom AFTER the building was finished because they realized how bad the noise gets, but it didn't help much!

I know the feeling, noisy people , I have been on the receiving end I have made noise in past no longer and delt with my neighbors down stairs & me, we all to live & function trying to focus and function properly, I found out last Sunday, that my new neighbor was unaware off noise levels in the block of flats, so , It started off, 10:30am loud music-11am , heavy stomping around 1:30pm with boom, clunk sound and loud bang at 9:30pm , his mate & him mucked about, so decided to head upstairs and start chatting to him nicely,I know that he plays Darts 🎯 and you still hear it every night at same time, I got use to it, but least i know what it is, sounds like a couple shagging, the headboard bangs against the wall, at least he knows he has to be quiet between 11pm -7am, so now writing his movements down, I work around him, trying to get my life back on track doing the things I love

Everything you said with your upstairs neighbors is my same issue. Management has spoken to them and they just don't care. They walk so hard popcorn paint falls from my ceiling. They have wood floors and they move and roll furniture all day and all night. They are so loud I've recorded them and it picks up on my phone. You can feel the vibrations on the floor from how hard they walk. It's so bad that from lack of sleep, my BP has gone up, I get to work so tired I'm not productive, and I know they have never lost any sleep over me keeping them up. Finally the office agreed I could give a 60 day to break my lease, and I'm looking at homes to buy now and haven't found anything. I think I'm just going to rent a house because I can't take it anymore.

CRYING BABY!!! Turn on a recording. Find one on YT. I complained to property management company and nothing happened. I started playing baby, and it pissed off all the neighbors. The property management company couldn't say a word to me about the noise because it's a BABY. The neighbors did the dirty work and complained about the crying baby, so the property manager was forced to confront him. Dude was gone in a few months.

I feel you.

I dont have time to sit in misery lol,i just take my behind to their door and let them know how loud they are being..people are aware they are being loud,they just dont care! People with kids need to live on the bottom floor. I have NEVER blasted any music because thats bad manners when you share WALLS. People need to realize everyone has a different scedule. You cant be nice to people such as this😂. I DO have a problem with inconsiderate a-holes😮. You need a HOUSE if you want to be that loud

Bro I've been in a smiliar situation. Do this. Buy a Lectrofan Evo, then a loud bluetooth speaker with a good low end. Then hook up the Lectrofan to the Bluetooth with the aux cable. And blast it every night. It'll help you sleep and drown out the low frequency noise from upstairs.

@@t.terrell7037 I got a Bose Soundlink Revolve. Little pricey but it has a good low end so REALLY helps drown things out. Plus side is you then also have a quality bluetooth for music. But yeah just make sure whatever speaker you get has an AUX input in addition to Bluetooth

Im a larger dude i don’t stomp or bang around. When walking at all I’m quiet. It could be smaller dudes dragging feet, they just walk heavy. It’s really annoying i can relate. My upstairs neighbours are loud annoying. Now with banging etc. They now run the water constantly. On off on off never ending. Lous hissing from pipes. Nobody does anything.

I have to deal with it every day.I had to do with my stupid noisy neighbors.It's ridiculous.I'm sick and tired of it

It's funny that there are no laws requirements for noise proofing apartments, I looked into it and is not a massive makeover, but it should be done during the building process and not after people move into the units. You can basically raise the floors and separate them to decrease the impact noise, and you can also insert vinyl plates to decrease the airborne noise. That should be mandatory in floors and walls, it would literally make apartments completely soundproof from music loud talking and even big impacts like a bass or jumping walking etc. It's not 100% soundproof, but enough to give people the proper peace of mind, if you have normal people living in the units like, you are just your average loud tenants, it would not leak any noise, but if you have animals like your upstairs neighbors it would leak a little noise since they are extra loud, but still liveable. The building I'm living in atm have a concrete foundation separating me and the downstairs neighbor (Which is pretty loud tbh), but I can deal with it since most of the airborne noise drowns out before coming into my place, also windows makes a huge difference, good 100% sealed windows can block out a lot of noise.

Our neighbours start chopping vegetables at 2am which is above our bedroom and the kids rooms for the last 3 days 2am is now a way to start the day, I'm really to scream, I have told them months ago that it's an issue but they say it's our issue not theirs, and the stomping omg. I feel for all of us

I’m glad I moved. I’m now an upstairs neighbor again. I never been loud.

People who walk like that do it on purpose, I know this after renting for almost 20 years. I've had a couple decent neighbors, but most are psychos that are hellbent on making you experience whatever noise they create because they are narcissists.

Im dealing with the same. The kid upstairs has adhd and is 16, doesn't go to school, and is a nightmare. he stomps, blast music, his mom blames his adhd and my office doesn't do shit

How is it possible the same people with the same habits and schedule live simultaneously above you and me?

What country or city do you live in? There are certain laws that allow you to press charges towards the people upstairs. That can really help you. Document every noise they are making. I have had the same issue in regard to recording the ceiling and the video not recording the audio properly; the noise is more quiet in video in comparison to real life. Although there should be a specific top corner in your home where when you record, you can hear everything. It depends on how you angle your phone and where you record in your home; preferably angling your phone so that the "speaker" of your phone is facing up. Also, if you are experiencing negative physical and/or mental symptoms, please go to a doctor or therapist and have them give you a document of your symptoms in regards to the noise. Hope this helps. Take care.

No you need to go upstairs and confront this situation.

@@2009yupyupI have a single mother living above me that doesn’t take the kids outside and they just run non stop. I bought a ceiling thumper machine and it bangs on the ceiling for 20 minutes at a time really loud. Anytime I hear noise I put it on and they quickly settle down. If they want to make noise, I’ll join in and we can both suffer. But it’s been very affective. I have a rule if I had to use the machine more than once a day, I turn the machine on at 4am. She keeps the noise to a minimum now.

You'll end up losing health. You need leverage, it's the only possibility.

If you hear stomping late night video record it and give it to management or call police.

Management didn't help with any noise complaint I had before, don't expect mich from them. Police definitely wouldn't help, they wak loudly and can say it's just the way they walk.

Landlords are filthy hypocrites. Critical tenants cost money. In principle, no sound should come through.. 0.0 In the past, soft floor coverings were mandatory. All laminate and hard floors create noise. Should be banned worldwide in apartments, flats, upstairs houses. 90 percent of apartments are noisy and cause nervous breakdowns in people. Serious health problems. That in turn causes aggression, unemployment and healthcare costs. etc. good housing is important. National authorities require homes to be properly insulated.

Any dates? Did you eventually move out?

Who lives upstairs?

Slams doors, sometimes brings his shit head kids who used to run all over the apartment plays loud music also talks really loud.
