My wife and I recently purchased a townhouse and unfortunately we have a snoring neighbor. :'( The snoring tends to be loud, but I am more worried about how it is a low frequency noise. If I put my hand on the wall I can feel the wall vibrating. I plan on demo-ing the entire 8 X 14 wall down to the studs. After speaking with a few contractors here is what I am going to:
1. Caulk any open holes or spaces in the underlying wall (

2. Install puddy pads on my two electrical outlets (

3. Install R19 Fiberglass insulation
4. Decouple the wall with sound clips and a 7/8” Drywall Furring Channel (

5. Hang THREE layers of 5/8” drywall with two layers of Green Glue (

Does anyone have any suggestions? Would you do anything differently?
