Soundproofer Tunbridge Wells Kent (TN1): If your home in Tunbridge Wells is being impacted by noise, perhaps you should look into installing some soundproofing to bring tranquillity to your bedroom, lounge, home office or studio. Conversely you might want to soundproof a specific room to keep noise in, such as in a home cinema or family room, to avoid disturbing others. Whatever your needs, soundproofing will provide you with peace of mind and sanity.
First it will help if we get our heads around how sound travels before we can identify ways to eliminate any sound intrusion or escape from your property.

Basically, sound travels in two ways around a home:
1. In open spaces by movement of air.
2. By vibration of solid materials and structures.
As whale and dolphin songs can show, sound also travels through water, but unless your aim is to soundproof an aquarium or pool we'll look only at the techniques of soundproofing rooms and structures.
SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH THE AIR
Any ill fitting windows, open ducting, gaps around doors and even electrical switches and sockets can all affect the transmission of sound into or outside a room. All noise and sound will create movement and vibration of the air molecules, and this is what we pick up and hear. It does not matter whether it's aircraft, kids playing, music playing, machinery or busy traffic, they all generate and transfer sound in the same way.
Any gaps in the room can be considered to be leaks and will have to be plugged.
SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH STRUCTURES AND OBJECTS
Sound waves can additionally be absorbed by, transferred to or reflected by solid materials and structures. Sound can be transmitted around a dwelling from its original source through the vibration of ceilings, floors and walls. Even if a room is encased in a dense material that is somewhat resistant to vibrations, such as a concrete lined basement, the sound can sometimes be reflected and possibly even amplified to other rooms in the structure.
How should we prevent these vibrations and sounds affecting other folks? Soundproofing is the answer.
SIMPLE SOUNDPROOFING STEPS
Think about covering a bare floor, which reflects and resonates sound, with a carpet or rug. Not only will such a simple and straightforward solution help to reduce your noise problem, but it can also perk up the room. Curtains, in particular substantial blackout ones, can also subdue any sounds from escaping or invading a room, cost-effectively and without the need for professional soundproofing.

Look for areas in the room where sound can come in or escape from; sockets, doors, windows and light fittings, and close off any gaps. It is possible to purchase specialist acoustic sealants in many DIY suppliers which moderate the transfer of sound by absorbing it. There could be a little difference in the price in comparison with a regular sealant, however the soundproofing abilities are significantly better and can make an enormous difference to a room's level of soundproofing.
For anyone renovating a property or redecorating a room, consider the soundproofing benefits of adding a supplementary layer of plasterboard or soundboard, (also known as drywall, sheet rock or gyproc), whilst you're tackling this work. This is a fairly dense board that is an economic and useful soundproofing material. It is excellent for areas such as studios, home cinemas or studies which are being built within a property. If you do choose plasterboard to help with your soundproofing it is a good idea to bring in a specialist fitter in Tunbridge Wells, to gain the maximum possible effect from its installment.
Lastly you should inspect all doors in the space you're planning to soundproof. Hollow doors are comparatively cheap but their soundproofing capabilities are far from perfect. Switching hollow doors for solid ones will noticeably enhance the soundproofing of an area with only a small extra cost.
PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING SOLUTIONS TUNBRIDGE WELLS
If you live in a high sound pollution location, such as near an airport or next to busy roads, you will have to be more creative in how to boost the quality of the soundproofing in your home. You'll receive the most effective soundproofing results by hiring the services of an experienced soundproofing company.

Be prepared to answer the following four questions during a review of your soundproofing needs:
- What sounds or noise are you wanting to reduce? i.e. External issues like traffic noise, trains, neighbours etc, or sounds inside your house from a home cinema or music studio.
- Where is the main source of the noise emanating from? i.e. Overhead, through the flooring, windows, walls, ceiling or doors, or a combination.
- How large is the area you need to be soundproofed?
- What is the space you wish to soundproof constructed from? (i.e. a lined concrete wall, a stud partition wall or a brick wall).
An experienced soundproofing company in Tunbridge Wells will consider all these factors to offer remedies for your noise problems over a range of budgets. There'll be distinct remedies for each of the key areas the space that you want to soundproof.
PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF WALLS, FLOORS and CEILINGS
There are 2 areas that need to be dealt with to soundproof any space:
- Sound absorption will have to be increased.
- Reduce sound resonating and amplifying.
A site survey will be required to look at the aspects that need to be improved.
The specialists will work out ways to add materials that have different masses and densities to maximise the sound absorption of the area. This additional mass will include ways to increase absorption of the sound energy by means of acoustic foam or rubber to gain the maximum impact of noise reduction.

Voids between joists might need insulation to eliminate the resonating space between them. If you think of a drum for example, you're looking at a noise increasing void surrounded by a resonating material; fundamentally what you might find inside ceiling and floor joists, or cavities in walls.
Combined layers of differing mass and density materials do a better job of absorbing sound than a single material layer of one kind. This is because different frequencies are affected by different types of materials, therefore a range of shapes, densities and layers within your soundproofing armoury are needed.
The Building Regulations (Part E) regulate the soundproofing of domestic properties, and will have to be adhered to by any soundproofing company in Tunbridge Wells. This set of regulations is a requirement in law to protect yourself and neighbours from being affected by noise pollution in an environment where folks work and live.
Trade organisations in the soundproofing sector that offer guidance, qualifications and training are the Association of Noise Consultants and the Institute of Acoustics. Only those Tunbridge Wells firms that have been vetted and accredited by these associations for quality, reliability and professionalism are permitted to bear the logo.
