My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Killing echo in large room

13 years ago
We have a 20 ft cube for a living room and hard floors. Other than carpet and lots if furniture, is covering the walls with acoustic panels the only solution?

    It's probably not the walls that are the problem, but the ceiling. You could try sound absorbing panels there.

    Did you ever solve this and how? We have a terrible echo and three small children. Help!!
