Different kinds of noise are affected differently by different materials and techniques. Chances are there will not be a single solution for the noise issue. There is normal conduction through the floor and walls of sound made by impact (shoes and objects touching the floor) and others that are by transmission through air such as voices. You may find your answer by reading similar past questions. | |

Generally, unless the construction is specifically sound-proofed (which I don't suppose a domestic basement is) the people downstairs can hear everything within six inches of the upstairs floor, door or no door: it comes straight through, a timber floor is one massive soundboard. I can understand a door or curtain giving a better sense of privacy though. Soundproofing curtains are not all that effective anyway. | |
