How to Reduce Road Noise in a House
- 1). Plant tall shrubs or bushes around the lower windows of your home to act as a buffer for the road noise to bounce off and away from your home.
- 2). Insulate windows and doorways with thin strips of insulation tape to fill in existing crevices that allow road noise in.
- 3). Hang heavy drapes or curtains on all of the windows of the home to lessen the road noise.
- 4). Install an electronic "masking system" which generates white noise inside the home to drown out the road noise with a soothing sound.
- 5). Build a barrier wall out of bricks and cement at a height of 8 feet to combat road noise before it leeches into your home.
