Sound proofing under original floor boards

Posted by Antony Marsh, on
I live in a victorian house with the original floor boards. I would like to install soundproofing but retain the original floor boards. What is the best solution for this and $ 6m x 4.5m 5.2m x 4.5m thanks

Hi Acoustic insulation placed under the floor boards. Be careful of pipes and electrics under the floor boards. If you can get underneath the joists then attach thin battens across the joists and this will carry the insulation
