If quiet is an essential component for you in your home should you install hardwood or carpet flooring in your remodel or your new home? Both can provide an excellent environment for your living spaces. However, if you have children or pets and/or are bothered by noise you’ll likely want to consider carpeting over hardwood. The biggest reason is soundproofing.
Where noise through the floor or ceiling is a problem, carpeting along with good underlay padding can solve two problems at one time: reducing sound transmission floor to floor and airborne noise.
For years, carpet has been the preferred flooring to compress unwelcome noise in the home. Carpet and pad provide better sound insulation over hardwood flooring and thus diminishing noise from loud children, clattering dishes, clomping boots, Television, blaring music, barking dogs or other household racket.
