Soundproofing Willingdon

Soundproofer Willingdon East Sussex (BN20): If your home in Willingdon is being affected by noise, perhaps you should look into installing some soundproofing to bring tranquillity to your home office, living room, bedroom or studio. In some circumstances you could be investigating soundproofing so that you do not disturb others from a music studio, home cinema or family room. No matter which soundproofing requirements are needed, it's vital for everybody's peace of mind.

Before we can discover techniques for countering sound pollution, it would be a good idea to understand precisely how sound travels.

Sound basically moves in two ways throughout your room:

1. In open spaces by movement of air.

2. By vibration of solid materials and objects.

As dolphin and whale songs can show, sound also penetrates long distance through water, however unless your aim is to soundproof an aquarium or swimming pool we will just look at the methods of soundproofing rooms and buildings.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH THE AIR

Any open air-ducting, single glazed windows, gaps around doors and even electrical sockets and light fittings can all affect the transmission of sound outside or into a room. All sound and noise will create the vibration and movement of the air molecules, and it is this that we hear. No matter what the source of the sound; aeroplanes, machinery, road traffic, music or kids playing, all sounds are produced and transmitted in precisely the same manner.

Any openings within a room can be considered to be a leak and will have to be blocked.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

We know that sounds are simply the vibrations of air reaching the ear, but those vibrations are also absorbed by solid materials. Sound will cause vibrations in the ceilings, floors and walls of your rooms, and may cause a resonation effect that is transmitted outside the area. Even in a room that's built from a solid material which is proofed against vibrations, such as a concrete lined basement, the sound can sometimes be transmitted and even amplified to other areas of the dwelling.

But, how can these sound generating effects be stopped from creating an issue? The solution is not surprisingly, soundproofing!

SIMPLE SOUNDPROOFING STEPS

Give some thought to covering a bare floor surface, which reflects and resonates sound, with a rug or carpet. Not only can such a simple and straightforward solution help reduce your noise pollution problem, but it can also brighten up the room. Curtains, especially substantial blackout types, will also subdue any sounds from invading or escaping the area, economically and without requiring professional soundproofing.

Search for areas in the rooms where noise can escape or come in; windows, electrical sockets, light fittings and door frames, and stop up any holes or gaps. You can find specialist acoustic sealants in many builders merchants which repress the transfer of sound by absorbing it. There may be a little difference in the price in comparison with a standard sealant, but the soundproofing capabilities are far better and can make a massive difference to a room's soundproofing.

For anyone renovating a property or redecorating a room, consider the soundproofing benefits of adding another skin of soundboard or plasterboard, (also known as gyproc, drywall or sheet rock), whilst you are tackling the project. This is a fairly dense type of boarding that's a perfect and economic soundproofing material. It is ideal for areas such as studies, home cinemas or music studios that are being built within the home. If you aren't experienced in putting up plasterboard and studding, it is generally better to use a specialist Willingdon contractor to guarantee the optimum soundproofing benefits from its installation.

Lastly you need to inspect all doors in the rooms that you're soundproofing. Hollow doors are a comparatively cheap option but their soundproofing capabilities are far from perfect. If you're able to change to solid core doors you will discover that it enhances your room's soundproofing more cheaply than some other solutions.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING WILLINGDON

If the sound pollution is excessive in your area, due to heavy traffic on a busy road nearby, or aircraft passing overhead for instance, then more severe ways to reduce the excess noise may have to be explored. This is where the services of an established soundproofing company will bring the most effective results.

They will ask the four following questions during a basic appraisal of your requirements:

1. What are the particular sounds that you need to be soundproofed? i.e. Is it external noises such as neighbours, passing trains, traffic noise etc, or is it from inside your house such as a family room or music studio.
2. Where exactly is the primary source of sound emanating from? i.e. Above, through the ceiling, windows, flooring, doors or walls, or a combination.
3. What kind of room or area do you want to soundproof? Is it a plasterboarded partition wall, a fully lined concrete wall or a brick wall etc.
4. What's the size of the area or room that must be soundproofed?

A specialist soundproofing company in Willingdon will look into all of these aspects to provide solutions to your sound issues over a range of budgets. The areas of your room that are causing the biggest issues will each need different remedies.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF CEILINGS, WALLS and FLOORS

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

1. The absorption of sound needs to be maximised.
2. Reduce sound reverberation and amplifying.

A site survey will be required to assess the aspects that need to be improved.

A professional soundproofing company will investigate the different ways to add mass and density to the troublesome areas. The use of acoustic foams and rubbers of different density and mass will help to absorb sounds and reduce transmission and reflection sources.

Insulation between any existing voids will be upgraded to lower the sound amplification and resonation of these sound boxes. If you visualise such spaces like a drum or wooden cajon then you'll understand that by leaving wall cavities and floor or ceiling joist spaces open, you are effectively creating a sound amplifying area.

Combined layers of differing density and mass materials do a better job of absorbing noise than a single material layer of one type. This is because the various different materials react better with different frequencies and will deliver a much better overall resolution to your soundproofing project.

The Building Regulations (Part E) deal with the soundproofing of domestic properties, and will have to be adhered to by any soundproofing specialist in Willingdon. Such requirements should be observed so as to protect yourself and neighbours from being negatively impacted by noise pollution.

Keep an eye out for companies showing the logos of the Association of Noise Consultants or the Institute of Acoustics to ensure you're using a business that is knowledgable and fully qualified in the soundproofing industry. An experienced soundproofing contractor in Willingdon will have been through a verification procedure for the quality and professionalism of their workmanship to have been certified as a member of these associations.
