Initially it might help if we discover just how sound moves and can be transmitted before we can find ways to reduce any sound intrusion or escape from your home.

Soundproofing Martock Somerset (TA12)

Sound basically travels in two ways throughout your home:

1. Through the air by vibration of air molecules.

2. Through objects by the vibration of the material.

Sound also travels through water, however unless you are thinking about soundproofing an aquarium or swimming pool we will just consider its isolation through materials and air.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH THE AIR

If you check around the space to be soundproofed and notice open air-ducting, gaps around doors, ill fitting windows and even electrical switches and sockets, these are all causes of sound transmission. What we hear and identify as sound is basically the vibration of air molecules being picked up by our ear drum. Regardless of the source of the sound; kids playing, busy traffic, passing aircraft, heavy machinery or music, all sound is produced and transmitted in exactly the same manner.

Any holes in the room can be viewed as leaks and will have to be blocked.

SOUND THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

Sound waves can also be transferred to, absorbed by or reflected by solid objects and structures. Sound can be moved around a building from its original source via the vibration of floors, walls and ceilings. Even a room made from solid concrete, such as a cellar, can generate a path of resonance which transports sound waves, and even amplify them, to other parts of a building.

How do we stop this sound transmission having a detrimental impact on other people? Soundproofing of course.

BASIC SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

A bare floor is more resonant than one covered with a carpet or rug. These soft coverings will help absorb sounds and can also add a bit of elegance to a previously bare room. Hanging wall coverings and curtains can also prevent sound reflections and vibrations through walls and windows without the need to hire a team of professional soundproofing installers.

Locating and sealing any gaps or holes in your rooms, think windows, electrical sockets, light fittings and door frames, is also an easy job for a skilled DIY enthusiast. Stopping up the holes and gaps with a special acoustic sealant found in many DIY and building material shops, will make a huge difference to sound transmission in a room. They are a bit more expensive than regular plaster or sealants, but they are worth the cost for their soundproofing efficiency.

If you're fortunate enough to be renovating or redecorating while tackling your soundproofing, then look at putting up an extra layer of plasterboard (also known as drywall, gypsum board or sheet rock). This is a fairly dense type of boarding that is a perfect and economic soundproofing material. If you're putting in a movie room, study or music studio then plasterboard will help to minimise sound transmission from and to that room, and can be decorated easily after installation. It is far better to hire a specialist Martock tradesman to fit the plasterboard unless you've experience in its application.

Soundproofer Quotes in Martock Somerset

One last simple soundproofing remedy is to look at the materials from which your doors are made. If you have hollow doors fitted to rooms you'll find they can vibrate and will resonate any sound that is aimed at them. Solid doors, whilst a little bit more pricey, can have a sizeable effect on the soundproofing qualities of a room.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING SOLUTIONS MARTOCK

If you reside in a high noise pollution area, such as near an airport or next to busy roads, you will have to be more innovative in how to enhance the soundproofing qualities of your property. This is when the services of a professional soundproofing installer will bring the best results.

Soundproofer Near Martock Somerset

They will ask the following four questions during the initial analysis of your needs:

  1. How large is the space requiring soundproofing?
  2. What kind of property or room would you like to soundproof? Does it have a brick wall, a fully lined concrete wall or a stud partition wall etc.
  3. Precisely where is the principal source of the sound coming from? i.e. Overhead, through the walls, ceiling, doors, windows or floors, or a mixture.
  4. Is it external noise or internal sounds that you wish to tackle? i.e. To lessen passing trains, neighbours playing loud music or traffic, or is it from internally generated sounds from a family room or music studio for example.

With answers to these questions a decent soundproofing specialist in Martock will come up with solutions to suit your circumstances, and just as importantly, your budget. Remedies will vary in line with the different materials needed for each of the problem areas in your property.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF WALLS, CEILINGS and FLOORS

There are 2 areas that need to be addressed to successfully soundproof any space or room:

  1. Sound absorption needs to be increased.
  2. Reduce the effect of sound vibration, reflection and amplification by hard surfaces.

A site survey is going to be required to assess the areas to be improved.

The installer will figure out ways of adding materials with different masses and densities to improve the sound absorption of the room. This extra mass will help to improve absorption of the sound energy by means of acoustic foam or rubber to achieve the maximum impact of sound reduction.

Voids between joists might need insulating to remove resonation spaces between them. Floor and ceiling voids and cavities in walls can all be assimilated with a drum, where the space acts like an amplification source for any undesirable noise.

Soundproofing qualities are improved if multiple layers of different density materials are utilised, as opposed to installing a single sort of material. This is because the different material densities react in different ways with various frequencies and will provide a better resolution to your soundproofing exploits.

All soundproofing specialists in Martock need to follow the legislation for residential buildings laid out in Part E of the Building Regulations. These legislation should be adopted so as to safeguard yourself and neighbours from being negatively impacted by noise pollution.

The Association of Noise Consultants (ANC) and the Institute of Acoustics (IOA) are recognised trade organisations who provide qualifications and training, and are representative of the very best in companies and contractors who provide soundproofing services. Any Martock contractor showing IOA or ANC accreditation has been appraised to make certain they provide the highest reliability, standards and quality of work within the industry.

Soundproofing Foam Martock

It appears from doing some simple keyword research that a common search on Google and other search engines is for "soundproofing foam" and for homeowners in Martock, possibly "soundproofing foam Martock". That is actually quite interesting, because it suggests that Martock home and business owners are assuming that soundproofing foam is a suitable product for reducing their noise pollution problems.

I don't wish to rain on your parade, but soundproofing foam is not really a resolution for most noise problems, and is most certainly not much use if you are aiming to eliminate the din from your noisy next door neighbours in Martock.

The familiar "egg box" style foam, that appears to be the hallmark of soundproofing, isn't actually designed for stopping the transmission of noise, but is meant for the reduction of amplifying and echoing in music studios and comparable settings, where it can also enhance the sound clarity in a room. Soundproofing foam of this sort isn't good for preventing noise from moving freely around your house, or preventing sound from penetrating a neighbours wall. Since it is porous, soundproofing foam absorbs sound and permits sound to pass through, rather than stopping it.

If however, you happen to have a music studio, this may be a handy product for you to use, and is available in different thicknesses (usually 25mm and 50mm), and in various sheet and tile sizes.

Acoustic Mineral Wool

For you noise reduction requirements in Martock, acoustic mineral wool is one of the handiest products for the soundproofing of houses or other structures, and has several applications. Acoustic grade mineral wool is specifically designed to be installed in the cavity spaces of walls, floors and ceilings, to enhance acoustic performance, dampen vibration and absorb airborne sound.

Acoustic Mineral Wool Martock

AMW generally comes in 1200mm x 600mm "slabs" and is widely available in 25mm, 50mm, 75mm and 100mm thicknesses. AMW is frequently made with recycled materials (around 20%), is chemically inert, and is non-combustible. It is rare for fungi, bacteria or mould to form in AMW, and it does not react with metal wall ties, plastics, brickwork, masonry, or other materials or substances that it comes into contact with.

When used as a sound absorbing filler between stud partitions, suspended ceilings and flooring joists, AMW is notably effective, and it is recognised in the construction industry for its acoustic, fire and thermal insulation qualities. In relation to separating floors and walls, and when used along with other acoustic products, acoustic mineral wool can help in compliance with The Building Regulations (Part E).... READ MORE.
