Quiet & Peaceful |
![]() ![]() |
Do you enjoy Peace & Quiet? Due to the increasing scarcity of urban land, we’re forced to build our homes closer together and near noisy main highways, railways and airports. Concrete homes provide the sound reducing-qualities that provide the kind of quiet comfort we all yearn for. Their high-density concrete walls also form an effective barrier to reduce annoying neighborhood noises like fire trucks, barking dogs and early morning lawn mowers. And on the other hand, if those midnight parties appeal to your way of life you can be undisturbed by complaining neighbors. A concrete home is often two-thirds quieter than a conventional home. Scientists would describe loud speech on the opposite side of a ‘conventional’ wall as “audible, but not intelligible”. On the opposite side of a concrete wall, a listener would “strain to hear” loud speech. It would be virtually “inaudible”. To enjoy your lifestyle be sure to select our sound-resistant concrete homes. |
