Hearing road noise in the front bedroom
Discussion
Hi fellas, after a bit of advice really. Plenty of knowledgeable people on here.
Me and my wife bought our house 12 months ago. Wasn't until we moved in that we realised road noise was quite loud when in the front bedroom, which is the bigger of the three so we sleep in there. It isn't really a busy road.
We could also hear shouting from the local football field which is 400 metres away.
February we had a new UPVC double glazed window and frame installed.
Seemed quieter. Obviously we were happier but as the months have gone by road noise outside is slowly driving me crazy. I work in an office all day which is pretty silent unless I leave the office and go into other parts of the building.
Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do?
Is the simple answer to get triple glazing or move into the back room?
