Folks, I need some help treating my house. My spouse and I both work at home, and I can hear him from the 1st floor when he's in his office on the 3rd. Any suggestion on how I can treat the walls by the stairwell?

Quietrock is sheetrock the absorbs 7 times as much sound for the same thickness of standard drywall. I helped a friend do a room and it really works. It can go over existing depending on outlets and molding.
Another idea is carpet in his office with padding for sound insulation and a solid core door.
