Friend of mine kena that..
Middle of night furniture moving..
Check the unit above.. See empty. No people staying

hahaha..almost same case like my female friend

she works as nurse..so usually come home late..keep hearing furniture moving late at night for months

cannot tahan edi she go upstairs to confront..unit kosong..nobody ever stayed there..1 month later ciao from that place

Lucky just rent only.. So can easily ciao...
What those own unit..
Gone lor

yalor..quite scary yo..lady summore..lel

if own that unit needs to call bomoh, shaman, monk whatever to "cleanse" the place

btw what did u fren do after?

Just rent only..
So after few months, just move out

if you google it you will know why.
the sound may sound like from above.. but actually from the other floor or the other unit far from your unit. the sound just travel..

Clean and quiet is all I want ...

So I got the same issue, neighbor above doing something like fixing furniture, walking, dropping metal stuff at 2-3 am repeated. So If you try to knock them with stick, they bite you back saying you are making noise...bla bla bla. Since it is intermittent noise, it is hard to catch them on red hand. I been discussed with them, some of the family members are good, but not all will stay silent at midnight especially young one with bad temper.

I been go through a lot with them, and from my experience you are advised not to knock them back (broom stick or any tools), later they will say you making noise.

the best is find some hidden cam/phone cam/sound recorder, walk to their unit at midnight (during making noise), complain to them, trick them to admit they are conducting noise at midnight remember to take video with their face. It will become good proof to show it to management or judges. So lucky I got one video they admitted fixing some IKEA thing at 4am, now uploaded to youtube in private mode.

So bad living with low quality neighbor. check this, German are not allowed to vacuum at Sunday (https://www.angloinfo.com/blogs/germany/life-off-the-autobahn/never-vacuum-on-a-sunday/). I hope some people will get mindset upgraded.

Thank for sharing. It's interesting to learn.

I think recording video of neighbour noise inside your own unit is NOT a good proof compare to they admitting it face by face.
Remember to upload it to YouTube and keep few copies in your cloud drive.

I am not first timer stay in high-rise. At least 2 uni hostel, 4 appartment / condo i stay before this, but this is the first unit I owned, maybe my renovation offended them. But I been accepting their *dinosaur walk* , *dragging chair*, *hulk run* and *steel ball dropping* for 2 years, enough is enough!

Polite talk is not permanent if the person have bad nature, they might silent for a period but end up they will forgotten one day. Also you are deal with 1 family and not all family members will care your complaint.

Make sure when they left the house (house is empty), padlock their grill and leave a note to keep it down else you will keep padlocking their grill.

Cause them some trouble lah, they will soon stop doing those noise at they know the consequences of such action.

But make sure no one is inside lah, you dont want to be getting jail time for that haha

some of the noises you hear are proven not caused by human.

like the ball dropping sound, its actually water pipping.

chair dragging - also not caused by actual ppl dragging chairs and I believe what one forumer here said, sound travels. It might not be from your direct unit above.

I also hear sound like this on all apartments I stayed. cant be every tenant above me love to drop rolling steal ball, dragging chairs and etc.

my neighbour is a technician, so he always hammer thing during day or night, what I do is just to wearing a headset and listen mp3.

or open my TV louder, so it can cover up the noise.

a friendly chat with your neighbour wont cause any harm.

Haiz, these days neigbours don't or don't want to talk to neigbours anymore.

Unless one buy over unit above, it is not possible to stop noise. Installing false ceiling with sound absorption materials could reduce noise from above.

Happened at Jasmine tower ss2.. really neighbor from the hell

Living in a community like condo, terrace house, etc certain amount of disturbance is unavoidable.

Oh yea.

It’s 3.27am now and upstairs neighbour decided to drag heavy furniture.

Moreover, little retarded kids jumping every morning at 6.30am excited to go school.

What’s more, everyday will have 1-3 nail to hammer into the wall every sunday.

What an exiting time to be alive!
