[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people don’t realize how poorly their doors are installed and[b] how much room is between floor and bottom of door.[/b] Solid door helps. You could add spray foam between studs, would require a little touch up once contractor is finished. There is sound reducing/fabric artwork/panels. Carpet Extra layer of drywall gapped off existing drywall Heavy drapes There are severally different options[/quote] Most houses, especially older ones retrofitted with hvac, need a gap at the bottom of interior doors for purposes of air circulation. Solid doors do help, as well as carpet with a thick pad, but I found that it is really hard to dampen sound up a stairwell, especially if there is an open landing at the top. [/quote]
