The challenge of noise is exacerbated by the fact that hard flooring surfaces are often preferred by inner-city residents who seek a low-maintenance lifestyle. The style and elegance of hard flooring surfaces tend to complement the contemporary aesthetics of many inner-city abodes. Unfortunately, footfall noise is more pronounced on hard surfaces than on soft, unless acoustics are handled appropriately. Not only do hard surfaces have the potential to increase noise levels directly inside individual homes, they also have the potential to cause greater disturbance between connected properties.
