Before we can find methods for countering sound pollution, we should understand just how sound travels.

Soundproofing Brighouse West Yorkshire (HD6)

Sound basically travels in two ways around a room:

1. Through the air by vibration of air molecules.

2. Through the vibration of objects or materials.

Despite the fact that sound can also travel through liquids, unless you're eager to isolate sounds from a swimming pool or aquarium, we will just be interested in how to reduce sound transmission in rooms within a structure.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH THE AIR

Sounds can be transferred into and out of a room through open ducting, ill fitted windows, gaps around doors and even electrical switches and sockets. Any sound vibrates the air molecules and this vibration is what we hear as sound. All sounds travel through the air in the same way; it matters not if it's aircraft, children playing, music playing, traffic or machinery that generates the sound.

You must therefore visualise your room as a boat and carefully inspect it for leaks before sailing off into the sunset.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

Sound waves can additionally be reflected by, absorbed by or transferred to solid materials and structures. The walls, ceilings and floors will all affect how sound travels around a room, and can even transfer that vibration to other areas of a property. Care must be taken with solid brick or concrete walls, such as a cellar, as sound can be transmitted and sometimes even amplified to other rooms in your property.

But, how can these sound generating effects be stopped from causing a problem? The answer is of course, soundproofing!

BASIC SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

If you've got bare floorboards or floors, consider covering them with carpet or putting down a few rugs to help reduce any sound reflections and vibrations. Not only can such a simple and straightforward solution help reduce your problem with noise, but it can also brighten up the room. Curtains, especially substantial blackout ones, will also repress any noises from escaping or invading a room, economically and without requiring professional soundproofing.

Another economical and do-it-yourself solution is to plug any gaps around electrical sockets, door frames, windows and light fittings. It is possible to buy specialist acoustic sealants in some building supply stores which suppress the transmission of sound by absorbing it. They may be a tad more expensive than normal sealants or plaster, but they are more than worth it for their soundproofing efficiency.

For anyone renovating a property or redecorating a room, consider the soundproofing gains of adding a supplementary skin of soundboard or plasterboard, (also called sheet rock, gyproc or drywall), whilst you are undertaking this project. Plasterboard is a dense material that is both effective and economical for soundproofing an area. If you're putting in a games room, home cinema or home office then plasterboard will help to minimise sound transmission to and from that room, and can be easily decorated after installment. If you do choose plasterboard to aid your soundproofing exploits it is better to bring in a professional fitter in Brighouse, to gain the maximum effect from its installation.

Voids between floor joists might require insulating to remove resonation spaces between them. If you visualise these spaces like a drum or wooden cajon then you can see that by leaving wall cavities and floor or ceiling joist spaces empty, you're creating a sound amplification area.
