Noise can be a major problem, particularly on busy streets and in neighborhoods where homes are too close to each other. Barking dogs, playing children and the neighborhood traffic can disrupt your sleep or early morning relaxation. Fortunately, there are several ways to solve this problem, and one of them is replacing your old siding.
If you live in an area where vehicles or people often pass by, the noise can make it difficult to focus during the day or sleep at night. New siding can be an effective noise barrier, so you might want to consider this for your next home improvement project.
Nevertheless, not all siding can provide this benefit. A few key factors typically determine the effectiveness of a siding material:
Consider thicker windows, such as double-pane or triple-pane ones, instead of single-pane units. You may also try adding more foliage to the outside as well. Trees are excellent noise blockers, reducing sound transmission by up to 40%. Conifers are a perfect choice because they produce dense foliage all year round.
