Soundproofing Ryde

Soundproofer Ryde Isle of Wight (PO33): If your property in Ryde is being affected by noise, maybe you should think about installing or upgrading your soundproofing to bring a new sense of tranquility to your home office, bedroom, living room or studio. Conversely you might wish to soundproof a specific room to keep noise in, such as in a home cinema or family room, so that others aren't disturbed. In any event, soundproofing is important for peace of mind.

Initially it might help if we learn exactly how is transmitted and travels before we can find ways to eliminate any excessive noise intruding into or escaping from your home.

Sound is able to travel in a couple of ways:

1. Within and around a solid object by reflection and vibration.

2. In open spaces by movement of air.

Sound is also transmitted through water, however unless you're thinking about soundproofing an aquarium or pool we'll only focus on its isolation through materials and air.

SOUND THROUGH THE AIR

Significant levels of sound can be transmitted out of and into a room through gaps around doors, open air-ducting, ill fitted windows and even electrical sockets and switches. What we hear as sound is actually the vibration of air molecules reaching our ear drum. All sounds travel through the air in the same manner; it doesn't matter if it's aeroplanes, heavy machinery, children playing, music playing or traffic that generates the sound.

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

SOUND THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

Sound waves can also be absorbed by, transferred to or reflected by solid objects and structures. The floors, walls and ceilings will all have an impact on how sound moves around an area, and can even transport those vibrations to other parts of a building. Even a room made from solid concrete, such as a cellar, can generate a path of resonance which transmits any sound waves, and even amplify them, to other areas of a structure.

So, how can we stop these sounds having a detrimental impact on other people? Soundproofing of course.

BASIC SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

A bare floor surface resonates more than one covered with a carpet or rug. Such a simple and straightforward solution can help to damp down any noises and spruce up the room to boot. Curtains, especially heavy blackout styles, will also subdue any noises from escaping or invading a room, economically and without the need for professional soundproofing.

Search for areas in your room where noise can escape or come in; windows, door frames, light fittings and electrical sockets, and stop up any holes or gaps. Sealing the holes and gaps with a special acoustic sealant found in some DIY stores and builders merchants, can make a huge difference to sound transmission in your rooms. Acoustic sealants are inclined to be a bit more pricey than regular sealant products, however their impressive soundproofing qualities far outweigh the additional cost.

For anybody renovating a property or redecorating a room, consider the soundproofing gains of adding a supplementary layer of soundboard or plasterboard, (also called sheet rock, drywall or gyproc), while you're carrying out this work. This is an efficient and economical soundproofing material due to its dense nature. It is excellent for spaces like studios, movie rooms or studies being built within your house in Ryde. It is better to hire an experienced Ryde tradesman to install plasterboard unless you've experience in its application.

The final do-it-yourself solution is to consider the doors in your property in Ryde. If you've got hollow doors fitted to rooms you will find that they can vibrate with any sound that they experience. Solid doors, whilst a little more expensive, can have a sizeable effect on the soundproofing qualities of a room.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING RYDE

Some properties, such as those beside busy traffic routes or on aircraft flight paths, have naturally more sound problems and will require other ways to solve the predicament. This is where the services of a specialist soundproofing contractor will deliver the greatest results.

The initial questions you can expect to be asked are:

1. From what direction do the noises seem to be coming? i.e. Through the doors, flooring, windows, ceiling or walls or a mix of all.
2. How big is the space that needs soundproofing?
3. What area needs soundproofing? i.e. Is it a concrete lined basement, a brick walled room, a stud partitioned room or a loft conversion.
4. What are the specific noises that you need to be soundproofed? i.e. Is it sounds from within your property such as a teenagers bedroom or family room, or outside noises such as noisy neighbours, street noise, aircraft, etc.

With answers to these queries a genuine soundproofing installer in Ryde will figure out solutions for your circumstances, and just as importantly, your budget. They will provide different methods to soundproof each of the trouble spots within your room.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF WALLS, FLOORS and CEILINGS

To soundproof any kind of room requires 2 key components:

1. Lessen the effect of sound reflection, vibration and amplification by hard surfaces.
2. Increase and maximise the level of sound absorption.

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

The installer will work out ways to add materials with different masses and densities to enhance the sound absorption of the room. Soundproofing will be boosted by the application of acoustic rubber and foam which will absorb excess noise and enhance and the sound quality of a room.

Any uninsulated voids in the area may require some type of deadening material to be placed between them to lessen sound resonation. If you think of a drum for instance, you are looking at a sound amplifying void surrounded by a resonating material; fundamentally what you may encounter within ceiling and floor joists, or wall cavities.

Soundproofing abilities are enhanced if multiple layers of varying density materials are used, as opposed to installing only one sort of material. This is because different frequencies are affected by different materials, therefore a variety of layers, shapes and densities within your soundproofing panels are required.

Part E of the Building Regulations regulate the soundproofing of domestic properties, and will need to be applied by any soundproofing contractor in Ryde. These regulations have the objective of protecting other residents in the area from the impact of sound pollution.

The Institute of Acoustics and the Association of Noise Consultants are recognised trade bodies who offer qualifications and training, and are representative of the best in companies and contractors who provide soundproofing solutions. Any Ryde contractor showing IOA or ANC accreditation will have been appraised to make certain they offer the highest standards, reliability and quality of workmanship within the soundproofing industry.

Searching Online

In these days of high-tech gadgets, the initial reaction for most when searching for tradesmen or services in Ryde is to take out the mobile and search on the internet.

What you'll realise is that those prominent search engines churn out results that can be somewhat obscure. When you're trying to identify soundproofing specialists for instance, you'll bring up a search engine and key in "soundproofing Ryde", "soundproofing near me", "soundproofing in Ryde" or "Ryde soundproofing".
