Hello everyone,
we have purchased a house built in 1996, constructed with solid building methods. However, the upper floor is incredibly noisy. My daughter’s room is right next to our bedroom. She has a large gable in her room. When she simply plugs in a charging cable, it sounds as if it is happening in our bedroom. If she talks quietly, we can hear every single word. What can I do? What needs to be checked, and who or what type of company is the right contact for this? It is really very loud and driving us crazy.

Screw on metal studs or furring channels, add acoustic insulation, then install drywall soundproofing boards. Finish by filling joints, sanding, and painting.
