| Jan 21, 2021 at 2:48 | comment | added | Tim T | Be aware that if you are in an apartment or townhouse with shared interior walls with another unit, you may find those walls are built to fire-code with an extra layer of fire-resistant sheet-rock on the studs, then with the normal sheetrock hung on horizontal "furring" strips on top of that. These will make matters much more complicated, though safer and quieter. The furring strips are not substantial enough to attach much to. Driving through to the stud is possible, but starts to compress the furring strip and bow the sheetrock, as well as conduct noise. | |
