Impact noise is the sound of something hitting something else. This could be someone playing the drums, footsteps on stairs or even a door slamming shut. Acoustic insulation can be fitted to the floors to ensure that impact noise is lessened.

Environmental Health law states that people are entitled to live their lives free from excessive noise, and that includes the home and the workplace, so acoustic insulation is not something that can be ignored.
