I'm having the same problem. The noise started when my upstairs neighbor's girlfriend moved in with him in 2018. Since then, every day my family have to suffer listening to heavy stomping noise, dragging of furniture & pot plants and dropping of unknown heavy objects. All these noises usually start from 7pm onwards until 1-2am daily, worse on weekends and MCO was a living hell.

I tried to solve this the peaceful way by talking to them, but I was told "You cannot control how people walk" and "If you cannot take it, MOVE!" My family have been sleeping with earplugs and white noise for more than six years now because we didn't have the money to move. We tried to find solutions by asking contractors to do a plaster ceiling but were advised not to because we are already staying within the unit.

Roughly 10 months ago, my upstairs neighbor started to hammer every night from 8.45pm to 11pm, not continuous hammering, but hammering once every 2-3 minutes which is driving us insane. Management said they can't do a thing if the noise is done before 11pm. I can feel my wife is going into depression because of this and I was so pissed I considered Zhenlouqi’ Floor Shaker to revenge on those MOFOs, but decided to move instead.

I'm considering another condo (landed property too far or too expensive for me), and thinking of looking for a contractor to build this ceiling for me.



Not sure anyone here has tried doing this, want to get some opinion.

FYI, my current condo is in Mont Kiara (not some flat) and my neighbors upstairs are Malaysian Chinese. I'm a Malaysian Chinese myself, but after being bullied for so many years, I'm starting to have a negative perception of my own race...
