Bedroom soundproofing

Try putting in thicker carpeting. It helps. Also look into heat insulation. There are grants for that and it muffles sound.

I would aim to replace carpets throughout and for my bedroom and the living room I’d save up first so I could get a nice thick underlay.  What exactly do you mean about heat insulation? 

You don't need to fit carpets. Rugs will do the trick. Think of it like a drum where the sound is transmitted across the surface...

Heat insulation means what it means. Many properties fall below the threshold for loft insulation or wall cavity insulation, so are eligible for grants. When a home survey is done on a property, heat efficiency is one of the things which is listed now (at least here in Scotland). It has the added benefit of reducing sound transmission.

Ah I wondered if you meant heat insulation like between the walls.  I think years ago it may have been British Gas were saying there was a grant available and they could put stuff between walls to improve efficiency.  So maybe there a similar scheme or grants available now.
