My neighbour has no idea what we have done, I would recommend having ago your self.we can still hear the odd noise (which is not a bad thing sometimes) I belive if I had doubled up on the plaster board would have been even better . make sure you use adisive for the battens no drilling into party wall. Hope this helps worked for us,and cost very little. Message me for anymore info be glad to help

Thanks very much for the information. That's really helpful.
I may have a go myself as it sounds quite straightforward.
Does no more nails really work? I remember years ago using it to fit skirting board and it all fell off!
You've given me some confidence that all is not lost so thank you.
