Soundproofing Warrington

Soundproofer Warrington Cheshire (WA1): If you are worried by the level of noise that is invading your Warrington property, be it in a studio, living room, bedroom or home office, you ought to contemplate installing or upgrading the soundproofing. Conversely you may want to soundproof an individual room to keep noise in, for example in a family room or home cinema, to avoid disturbing others. Whatever your needs, soundproofing will provide you with peace of mind.

Firstly we should get our heads around precisely how is transmitted and travels before we can find ways to reduce any excessive noise intruding into or escaping from your home.

Sound can travel in only two ways:

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

2. By the vibration of air molecules.

As dolphin and whale songs can show, sound also travels long distances through water, but unless your aim is to soundproof a pool or aquarium we'll just look at the strategies for soundproofing buildings and rooms.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH THE AIR

If you look around the room to be soundproofed and notice ill fitted windows, heating ducts, gaps around doors and even electrical sockets and light fittings, these are all causes of sound transmission. All noise vibrates the air molecules and these vibrations are what we hear and identify as sound. It doesn't matter whether it's children playing, music playing, aeroplanes, nearby traffic or heavy machinery, they all create and transfer sound in the same way.

If you can think of your room as if it were a bucket, you are trying to identify any leaks which need sealing before you can fill it up with liquid.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

As sound travels through the air by vibrations, then it seems reasonable to assume that those vibrations can be transferred to, reflected by or absorbed by various solid materials. The floors, walls and ceilings will all have an effect on how sound travels around a room, and may even transport those vibrations to other parts of a dwelling. Even in a room that is built from a dense material that's resistant against sound, such as a concrete lined basement, the sound can be transmitted and possibly even amplified to other rooms in the dwelling.

So, how can we stop these sound vibrations having an impact on others? Soundproofing of course.

SIMPLE SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

Think about covering bare floors, which reflect and resonate sound, with a carpet or rug. The rugs or other soft coverings will help to soak up noise and can also add a touch of style to an otherwise bare room. Hanging wall coverings and curtains can also avoid sound reflections and vibrations through walls and windows without the need for a team of professional soundproofers.

Track down areas in the room where sound can escape or come in; electrical sockets, light fittings, windows and door frames, and close off any gaps. There are some unique acoustic sealants available to buy which absorb the sound waves, and don't transfer them to surrounding materials. There might be a considerable difference in price compared to a regular sealant, but the soundproofing capabilities are far better and can make a massive difference to a room.

For those of you who are redecorating a room or renovating a property, look at the soundproofing properties of adding a supplementary layer of soundboard or plasterboard, (also known as gyproc, sheet rock or drywall), whilst you are undertaking this project. This is an efficient and economical soundproofing material owing to its dense nature. It's perfect for spaces like home offices, home cinemas or studios being built within your house in Warrington. It is better to hire a professional Warrington tradesman to install plasterboard unless you're experienced in this task.

Last but not least you need to examine all doors in the room you're seeking to soundproof. Hollow doors are a relatively cheap option but their soundproofing qualities are far from perfect. If you're able to change to solid wood doors you will find it enhances your soundproofing at very little extra cost.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING WARRINGTON

If you happen to live in a high sound pollution location, such as near an airport or next to busy roads, you'll need to be more ingenius in your efforts to increase the soundproofing qualities of your house. You'll obtain the best possible soundproofing results by retaining the services of a certified soundproofing specialist.

They should ask the following four questions during a basic evaluation of your needs:

1. What noise or sounds are you trying to eliminate? i.e. External issues like passing trains, traffic noise, noisy neighbours etc, or internal sounds from a music studio or home cinema.
2. How large is the space you want to have soundproofed?
3. Where is the majority of the noise pollution coming from? The walls, ceiling, doors, windows or floor.
4. What area needs to be soundproofed? i.e. Is it a concrete lined basement, a stud partitioned room, a loft conversion or a brick walled room.

With answers to these queries a good quality soundproofing firm in Warrington will offer you solutions for your situation, and just as important, your spending budget. The areas of your room that are responsible for the biggest issues may each need different solutions.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF CEILINGS, WALLS and FLOORS

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

1. Sound absorption needs to be improved.
2. Minimise sound amplifying and reverberation.

This will require an on-site survey to find out precisely what areas require improving from the present state.

The team will figure out ways to add materials that have different masses and densities to enhance the sound absorption qualities of the area. This additional mass will help to enhance absorption of the sound energy through the use of acoustic rubber or foam to gain the maximum impact of sound reduction.

Voids between floor joists may need insulation to eliminate the resonating space between them. Wall cavities or flooring and ceiling voids can all be assimilated with a drum, where the space acts like an amplification source for unwanted noise.

Mixed layers of differing density and mass materials do a better job of absorbing sound than a solitary layer of one material type. This is due to the fact that different frequencies are affected by different materials, therefore a diversity of shapes, layers and densities within your soundproofing panels are needed for the best results.

The Building Regulations (Part E) cover the soundproofing of domestic properties, and will need to be applied by any installation company in Warrington. Part E of the Building Regulations is a requirement in law to protect your neighbours and yourself from being affected by noise pollution in an environment where folks live and work.

Keep an eye out for companies showing the logos of the Association of Noise Consultants or the Institute of Acoustics to be certain you're using a business that is fully qualified and knowledgeable in the soundproofing sector. A credible soundproofing specialist in Warrington will have undergone a verification procedure for the quality and professionalism of their work to have been accepted as a member of these organisations.

Doing a Search On the Web

In these days of modern technology, the first thoughts when searching for a tradesman or service in Warrington is to pick up a mobile and do a quick search on the internet. You can obtain immediate results by making use of Bing, Yahoo, Google or Ask, and indeed that's the wonderful thing about such search engines. However, the major search engines mentioned above very often deliver page one listings which are not the most relevant. In this particular scenario you will be typing in something like "soundproofing Warrington", "soundproofing near me", "Warrington soundproofing" or "soundproofing in Warrington" to discover a suitable person.

Web directories such as Foursquare, Yell, Yelp or Three Best Rated, or entries from multi-million pound companies like Rated People, TrustaTrader, My Hammer, Local Heroes, Quotatis or Checkatrade will more than likely show up highly on the first page of results, as will strictly "pay per click" advertisements. The websites belonging to actual soundproofing companies in your area will most likely be found a good deal lower down the search engine listings - on page 2 or 3 maybe. Trademan vetting portals such as Rated People or My Builder are still useful though, and you can employ their informative offerings to study reviews, get free quotations and consider client feedback, since there are lots of soundproofing installers on there who do not yet have a website of their own.
