Crevette Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 The apartment where I live has 8 floors, no lift, and old wooden stairs. The bedrooms are conveniently located next to the stairwell.What this means is that if someone starts work early or arrives back late, then the whole buliding will know about it!I have actually fitted some "no bruit" wallpaper in the bed-room which helps reduce the noise a bit, but the obvius solution would be to fit a stair runner carpet.I have no idea how this could be paid for or it would work from an administration point of view.... any ideas how to approach this?Thanks,-Rob-PS: there are actually two buildings in our courtyard and the other building does have a stair-runner carpet so I know it's possible!

booboo Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I would think this is something that needs to be voted for at the next assemblée generale, then it can be budgeted. You'll need to suggest it to the company that is your 'syndic' and they can add it onto the next agenda. You'll need to get a few quotes for the carpet too. (If you're not the owner, but only the tenant, then you'll have to get the owner to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
