Hello everyone!
We have been living in our newly built 145m2 (1,560 sq ft) house since Easter.
The exterior walls are made of aerated concrete with a brick veneer. The interior walls are made of calcium silicate bricks.
Yesterday, something happened that really surprised me.
We have a walk-in closet on the upper floor. My wife was hanging clothes on metal hangers there.
At the same time, I was sitting on the toilet on the ground floor. I could clearly hear her sliding the hangers over the metal rods from there.
Overall, the entire new house feels extremely noisy! You can hear every little sound, even from the bathrooms...
Can anyone explain this to me?
