First of all it would be advantageous to discover exactly how sound travels and is transmitted before we can find ways to eliminate any sound intrusion or escape from your property.

Soundproofing Romiley Greater Manchester (SK6)

There basically a couple of ways in which sound can be transmitted around a home:

1. Through the vibration of objects or materials.

2. By the vibration of air molecules.

Although sound also travels through liquids, unless you're looking to eliminate noise from an aquarium or swimming pool, we'll only be concerned with how to reduce sound levels in the rooms of a structure.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH THE AIR

Significant levels of sound can be transferred into and out of a room through gaps around doors, ill fitted windows, open ducting and even light fittings and electrical sockets. All noise and sounds will create movement and vibration of the molecules in the air, and it is this that we pick up and hear. All sounds are transferred through the air in this same manner; it does not matter if it's music, heavy machinery, road traffic, children playing or aircraft that generates the sound.

It is helpful to think of a room as a boat and inspect it carefully for leaks that need sealing before you can sail it.

SOUND THROUGH STRUCTURES AND OBJECTS

We now know that sounds are just the vibration of air being picked up by the ear, but that vibration is also reflected by or transferred to solid objects. Sound will cause vibrations in the ceilings, floors and walls of your rooms, and can lead to a resonating effect which is transmitted outside the room itself. Even a room made of solid concrete, such as a cellar, can create a path of resonance which channels sound waves, and even amplify them, to other areas of a property.

How can we stop these vibrations and sounds affecting other folks? Soundproofing is the remedy.

BASIC SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

If you have bare floor surfaces or floorboards, consider laying a few rugs or cover with a carpet to help reduce any vibrations and sound reflections. Not only can such a simple and straightforward solution help reduce your noise problem, it can also jazz up the room. Hanging curtains and wall coverings can also damp down sound reflections and vibrations through windows and walls without the need to hire a team of professional soundproofing installers.

Locating and plugging any gaps or holes around the room, think windows, light fittings, sockets and door frames, is also a straightforward task for a skilled DIY enthusiast. You can find specialist acoustic sealants in some building supply stores which deaden the transmission of sound by suppressing it. There might be a considerable difference in the price when compared to a normal sealant, however the soundproofing abilities are far better and will make a big difference to a room's level of soundproofing.

If the room you are working on is a blank canvas and you're soundproofing as you renovate or decorate, look at installing another skin of soundboard or plasterboard, (also called drywall, sheet rock or gypsum board). This is an economic and efficient soundproofing material owing to its dense nature. It is perfect if you are setting up a home office, home cinema or studio in your home in Romiley. It's wise to hire a specialist contractor near you to fit the plasterboard unless you've experience in its application.

The first questions you should be asked are:

  1. From what direction does the noise seem to be coming? i.e. Through the flooring, doors, ceiling, walls or windows or a mix of all of these.
  2. What room needs to be soundproofed? i.e. Is it a brick walled room, a concrete lined basement, a loft conversion or a stud partitioned room.
  3. What are the particular sounds that need to soundproofed? i.e. Is it outside noises such as road noise, passing trains, neighbours etc, or is it from inside your house such as a music studio or family room.
  4. How large is the room requiring soundproofing?

With honest answers to these questions a good quality soundproofing company in Romiley will offer you solutions for your circumstances, and just as importantly, your budget. There'll be distinct solutions for each of the key areas the space you wish to soundproof.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF FLOORS, CEILINGS and WALLS

To soundproof any kind of room requires 2 key components:

  1. Cut down on the ways that sound is transmitted through and reflected by hard surfaces.
  2. The absorption of sound needs to be improved.

To accurately analyse the soundproofing areas that need to be improved, a site survey should be conducted by a soundproofing specialist.

Solutions identified by the survey will probably include adding some materials of different densities to help increase the soundproofing qualities of the area. This extra mass will include ways to enhance the absorption of noise by means of acoustic rubber or foam to achieve the maximum sound reduction impacts.

The insulation between any voids will be improved or upgraded to lower the sound resonation and amplification of these sound boxes. If you picture these spaces as similar to a drum then you'll see that by leaving floor or ceiling joist spaces and wall cavities open, you're creating a sound amplifying area.

Combined layers of differing density and mass materials do a better job of absorbing noise than a single soundproofing material layer of one kind. This is due to the fact that the various frequencies are absorbed differently by different materials, therefore a diversity of densities, layers and shapes within your soundproofing armoury are needed.

The Building Regulations (Part E) regulate the soundproofing of residential properties, and will need to be adhered to by any installation company in Romiley. Such regulations should be adopted so as to safeguard yourself and neighbours from the harmful effects of noise pollution.

Look for companies showing the logos of the Institute of Acoustics (IOA) or the Association of Noise Consultants (ANC) to be sure you're dealing with a business that is fully qualified and knowledgeable in the soundproofing industry. A reputable soundproofing company in Romiley will have been checked for the professionalism and quality of their work to have been accepted as a member of these organisations.
