It's crucial for us to understand how sound travels around an area before it's possible to discover techniques to prevent it from occurring.

Soundproofing Hednesford Staffordshire (WS12)

Sound can travel in only two ways:

1. Around and within a solid object by reflection and vibration.

2. The vibration or air molecules through the air.

As dolphin and whale song shows, sound also travels through water, but unless your intention is to soundproof an aquarium or pool we will just look at the techniques of soundproofing buildings and rooms.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH THE AIR

Significant amounts of sound can be transmitted out of and into a room through open air-ducting, gaps around doors, ill fitted windows and even electrical switches and sockets. All noise and sound will create the vibration and movement of the molecules in the air, and this is what we hear. All sounds are moved through the air in this same manner; it matters not if it's children playing, aircraft, traffic, machinery or music playing that creates the sound.

If you can think of your room as a bucket, you are trying to find any leaks that need sealing before you can fill it with liquid.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH STRUCTURES AND OBJECTS

As sound moves through the air by vibrations, then it makes sense that such vibrations can be reflected by, absorbed by or transferred to various materials. Sound will cause vibrations in the walls, floors and ceilings of your rooms, and may lead to a resonation effect that's transmitted beyond the room itself. Even in a room that is built from a solid material which is resistant to vibrations, such as a concrete lined basement, the sound can be reflected and possibly even amplified to other parts of the structure.

How do we stop this sound transference affecting other people? Soundproofing obviously.

BASIC STEPS IN SOUNDPROOFING

Think about covering a bare floor, which resonates and reflects sound, with a carpet or rug. These soft coverings will help to soak up noises and can also add a touch of style to a previously bare room. Hanging curtains and wall coverings can also suppress sound vibrations and reflections through walls and windows without the need to hire a team of professional soundproofing specialists.

Look for areas in your rooms where sound can escape or come in; doors, electrical sockets, windows and light fittings, and seal the gaps. Sealing the holes and gaps with a special acoustic sealant that can be purchased in many DIY stores and builders merchants, will make an enormous difference to sound transmission in a room. They are somewhat more expensive than standard plaster or sealants, but are worth the cost for their soundproofing qualities.

If your room is an empty canvas and you're soundproofing while you decorate or renovate, think about installing a layer of plasterboard or soundboard, (also known as gypsum board, drywall or sheet rock). Plasterboard is a very dense material that's both effective and economical in soundproofing an area. If you are putting in a cinema room, music studio or study then plasterboard will help reduce sound pollution for that room, and can be decorated easily after installment. It is best to hire a reliable Hednesford tradesman to install plasterboard unless you've got experience in its application.

Last but not least you ought to inspect all doors in the area you're planning to soundproof.

The initial questions you can expect to be asked are:

  1. How big is the space requiring soundproofing?
  2. What kind of area or room do you want to soundproof? Is it a plasterboarded partition wall, a fully lined concrete wall or a brick wall etc.
  3. What are the specific noises that you need to be soundproofed? i.e. Is it sounds from inside your property such as a music studio or family room, or external noises such as overflying aircraft, noisy neighbours, street noise, etc.
  4. What is the main area where the noise causes the biggest issues? i.e. Is it emanating up through the flooring, from the walls, down from overhead or through doors/windows, or is it a mixture of all factors.

With honest answers to these queries a trustworthy soundproofing specialist in Hednesford will come up with solutions for your circumstances, and just as important, your allotted budget. The parts of your room that are responsible for the biggest problems will each need different solutions.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF FLOORS, CEILINGS and WALLS

To soundproof any type of room requires two key approaches:

  1. Sound absorption will need to be increased.
  2. Minimise sound reverberation and amplifying.

This requires a site survey to find out exactly what areas need enhancing from the current state.

Solutions from the survey will probably include the addition of materials with different densities to help increase the soundproofing attributes of the area. The use of acoustic foams and rubbers of different density and mass will help in absorbing noise and reduce transmission and reflection sources.

Soundproofing Services Hednesford (WS12)

Any uninsulated voids in the area may require some type of muffling material to be inserted between them to lessen noise resonation. If you imagine a drum or wooden cajon, you are looking at a noise increasing void enclosed within a resonating material; in essence what you might encounter inside floor and ceiling joists, or wall cavities.

Mixed layers of materials with different densities and masses work better at absorbing noise than a single material layer of one type. This is because different frequencies are affected by different kinds of materials, therefore a range of densities, layers and shapes within your soundproofing armoury are needed.

The Building Regulations (Part E) cover the soundproofing of domestic properties, and will have to be adhered to by any soundproofing firm in Hednesford. These legislation have to be followed in order to safeguard yourself and neighbours from being negatively impacted by noise pollution.

The Association of Noise Consultants and the Institute of Acoustics are recognised trade bodies who provide qualifications and training, and represent the best in contractors and companies that offer soundproofing solutions. Only those Hednesford companies that have been vetted and authorised by these organisations for quality, professionalism and reliability are allowed to display the logo.

Acoustic or Soundproofing Underlay Hednesford

One of the less troublesome techniques for adding a bit of soundproofing to your house in Hednesford is through the use of soundproofing or acoustic underlay. These underlays can be successfully used on both timber and concrete floors, and underneath laminate, engineered wood, vinyl planks and carpet floor coverings.

Where there are issues with impact noise rather than airborne noise, acoustic underlay is especially beneficial. Impact noise has become a widespread issue in Hednesford homes nowadays, with an increase in the popularity of "hard" floor finishes. This is especially problematic when coming from upstairs rooms, and the kind of noise issues we're talking about here is general foot traffic, moving furniture and children running around.

You should not confuse soundproofing or acoustic underlay with standard carpet underlay, although some carpet stores may try to palm you off with this claiming it has good soundproofing benefits. Ensure that you purchase a decent soundproofing underlay, if if you're suffering from significant noise problems.

Although soundproofing underlay is mostly effective for reducing impact noise, some are much better than others when facing airborne noise issues like shouting, deafening music and booming TV's. Discussing the specific sorts of noise you are wanting to minimise with your supplier or soundproofing expert is essential, and this should help you purchase the best product for your needs.
