Hi lemmys! My next door neighbour is driving me crazy. They started at 10:30AM and you can hear them through closed doors and windows, and two brick walls. They have enough brain cells to understand “turn it down”. Any ideas to deal/screw with them?
Ideas like frozen pee through letterbox are also appreciated :)
I think it’s ridiculous that it’s allowed. It’s the reason why I can’t live in apartments. Most of them have poor sound isolation and it’s terrorizing to have to listen to music through the walls, or to walk around with noice canceling headphones constantly.
The argument “people need to live their lifes” is also weird. What about my life where I want my apartment to be quiet?
Also it’s dangerous to human health to be forced to have noise around us. You can never fully relax. It’s against our very nature to not be able to rest in quiet.
Only when I moved to a house, I felt finally at peace.
Kind of a misplaced dig at apartments there, considering OP appears to be dealing with this in a house.
Yeah true. I usually hear about noise complaints from people in apartments. It should be a lot more uncommon in houses.
Just bad luck I guess.
Bad luck on both counts. I live in an apartment and the walls are thick enough that I hardly ever hear noise from neighbouring units (or at least that was the case until recently when one of my neighbours had a baby and now I can hear the baby screaming in the hallway semi-regularly.)
Please show me some studies that show “it’s dangerous to human health to be forced to have noose around us”
Everyone that lives at a crappy built apartment is enabling the builders to keep building substandard housing.
If you signed a lease, its your fault for not checking how good the walls are insulated.
