Soundproofing Your Apartment: Dealing with Noise in Dense Historic Centers
Cost overruns start before the first hammer. They start in the documents. Noise control fails when flanking paths are ignored.
Scope and cost control
Noise control fails when flanking paths are ignored.
Via Etnea and Via Libertà carry traffic noise into old masonry.

Site supervision
Weekly site checks and photo reports keep contractors aligned and expose slippage early.
Record approvals in writing and update drawings when conditions change.
You need a technical review before signing or starting works. We align the file, the permit path, and the scope so costs and time are measurable.
