Can Something Be Placed Under Carpet Padding And Carpet To Deal With Sound Problem?

Garret — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 10:05:44 +0000

Sump pump under the bedroom irritates me when it goes off. The bedroom has a hard wood floor and I would like to carpet it to get ahead of this irritant. I believe vibration and sound are easily transmitted through the hard wood floors and there is not much subfloor in place. Should I have something laid under the padding to assist with sound control and if so what and where do you get it?
