[quote=Anonymous]This can get very expensive very quickly to do after the fact. You also have to identify whether the issue is airborne noise or impact noise (noise transfer/vibrations traveling through structure of the house). It’s sounds like you might have both but that impact noise from foot traffic on the stairs is the culprit. White noise machines can help mask ambient airborne noise (barking, conversations etc), but may not be as effective with staircase impact noise. If you aren’t prepared to pull up floor boards, you can try fixing squeaky steps and sound absorber material on stairs along with soundproofing wall adjacent to staircase and white noise machine.[/quote]
