It's not people dragging furniture.

Something to do with pipes and structure contracting due to drop in temperature at night.

Common noises are furniture dragging, guli dropping, door slamming.

Definitely not supernatural or your neighbours being arses.

I have stayed at the second highest floor and can frequently hear the people walking upstairs like an elephant, stomping up and down....Seriously, people don't know how to walk gracefully and elegantly anymore.

I stay at high-rise. I can understand if the neighbour directly above you makes noise, but 4 floors above? Can you even hear it if they really drag their furniture?

Every now n then when close to public holiday, I have this unit 4 floors above me would drag the chair late at night.

So loud feels like earthquake.

I asked guard to notify the person not to drag the chair but the more guard notify the more this stubborn person drag the chair

Now I go to Maintenance Office, they say they would talk to them.

But to date still got chair dragging.

May I know what other avenue I have to resolve this ?

Damn, this is really shit soundproofing then. On my end, the noisy troublemakers are my immediate neighbors living next door ans upstairs. Cibais all of them, but I reserve most of my hate towards the upstairs neighbor for being evil and letting his kids stomp late at night. Have you tried confronting that neighbor? Go with the guard next time.
Does that work? I use a thick plastic broom to hit the ceiling sometimes. Not sure if they can even hear it because the kid will continue stomping even late at night.

damn, now someone above me is moving in.

bye bye to peace n good sleep.

i can hear sounds renovations, footsteps.

yes you can use a 2 by 4 wood to slam the ceiling but this may irk other floors above you, and they may retaliate by dragging more chairs, then you will have to fight more than 1 upstair neighbor.

yeah they really need to learn how to walk like a ninja.

otherwise, visit them with a parang and chop off their legs.

i stayed at 2nd highest floor and that family staying above me has made all sorts of noises(make you wonder why they like to drag the furniture middle of the night, stomping the floor with rhythm (can hear music).. asked guard go check and advice but no improvement.
management office asked to call police directly.. wtf.. but i think there's a law of noisy neighbour.

My neighbor from above love to use granite stone bowl to knock some food/spice for cooking. I bought the small blender for this particular neighbor and issue solved.

I had similar experience as well, when feel it come from my above floor but actually is 2 level above mine. Complaint is useless, try talk to them nicely and understand why it happen so often.

Anyways living in high rise you can face a lot this problem unless you staying in landed which have lesser problem
