Firstly let me introduce myself. My name is Ivo and I just purchased one apartment from Barratt Homes.
Secondly apologies in advance if this is not the right section on the forum to post this.
We moved in less than a month ago and we’ve noticed that we can hear downstairs conversations. Not every word but murmurs. Same with music. We don't think the downstairs neighbours are loud at all, we suspect something else might be wrong.
Surprisingly, the sound seems to be coming from the windows or it's frames.
Ah, worth mentioning that this is happening mainly in the living room where most of the walls are basically either windows/balcony or glass.
We asked around and few people claim they are experiencing the same thing. One of them actually mentioned that Barratt filled up the frames of his flat with sand?!
Anyway the development is relatively new so someone from Barratt is coming over tomorrow.
I was just wondering if anyone has experienced something similar and whether or not the developer manage to help at all.
Cheers,
Ivo
