Soundproofing Writtle

Soundproofer Writtle Essex (CM1): If you're worried by the amount of noise that is infiltrating your Writtle property, be it in a home office, studio, lounge or bedroom, you ought to think about putting in some soundproofing. You may also be aware of noise from a family room or home cinema room seeping out and causing a disturbance to other inhabitants. Either way, soundproofing is vital for your sanity and peace of mind.

First of all we should learn how sound travels and is transmitted before we can find ways to combat any excessive noise escaping from or intruding into your property.

Sound basically travels in two ways around a room:

1. By vibration of solid materials and structures.

2. In open spaces by movement of air.

Sound is also transmitted through water, however unless you are thinking about soundproofing a swimming pool or aquarium we will just concern ourselves with its isolation via materials and air.

SOUND TRAVEL THROUGH THE AIR

Sound can be transmitted into and out of a room through ill fitting windows, gaps around doors, open air-ducting and even electrical switches and sockets. All sound vibrates the molecules in the air and this vibration is what we hear and identify as sound. Irrespective of the source of the noise; children playing, machinery, music playing, traffic or aircraft, all sound is created and transferred in precisely the same fashion.

Any holes within the room can be looked at as leaks and will need to be plugged.

SOUND TRAVELLING THROUGH OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES

Sound waves can also be reflected by, transferred to or absorbed by solid materials and structures. Sound can be transmitted around a building from its source by the vibration of ceilings, floors and walls. Even in a room that is built from a solid material that is proofed against sound vibrations, such as a concrete lined cellar, the sound can sometimes be reflected and perhaps even amplified to other areas of the dwelling.

However, how can these effects be prevented from causing a problem? The answer is of course, soundproofing!

SIMPLE STEPS IN SOUNDPROOFING

If you've got bare floors or floorboards, think about putting down a few rugs or cover with a carpet to help in reducing any vibrations and sound reflections. Such a simple and straightforward solution can help to damp down any noise and spruce up the room at the same time. Curtains, particularly heavy blackout ones, will also stifle any noises from escaping or invading a room, cost-effectively and without the need for professional installation.

Finding and stopping up any gaps around the room, think doors, windows, electrical sockets and light fittings, is also an easy task for a competent DIY enthusiast. Plugging the holes and gaps with a special acoustic sealant that can be purchased in many DIY and building material shops, will make an enormous difference to sound transmission in a room. Acoustic sealants are inclined to be a little more pricey than regular sealant products, however the special design has far greater soundproofing performance and is worth the extra cost.

For those of you renovating a property or redecorating a room, consider the soundproofing gains of adding a supplementary layer of soundboard or plasterboard, (also known as sheet rock, gyproc or drywall), whilst you're undertaking the project. This is an economic and efficient soundproofing material owing to its dense nature. If you are putting in a movie room, home office or studio then plasterboard can help reduce sound transference to and from that room, and can be decorated easily after installment. If you are not proficient in putting up plasterboard and framing, it is advisable to hire a specialist team to guarantee the optimal soundproofing benefits from its use.

The last solution for do-it-yourself enthusiasts is to think about the doors in your home in Writtle. Even though hollow doors are light and fairly inexpensive, their soundproofing qualities are not that brilliant. Changing hollow core doors for solid core will considerably improve the soundproofing characteristics of an area with only a small extra cost.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING WRITTLE

If the level of sound is extreme in your location, due to aircraft flying over, or heavy traffic on a busy road for example, then more severe methods to reduce the excess noise will need to be investigated. This is when retaining the services of an established soundproofing installer will deliver the best results.

Be prepared to answer the four following questions during an assessment of your particular soundproofing requirements:

1. What sounds or noise are you attempting to subdue? i.e. External things such as street noise, next door neighbours, aircraft etc, or sounds inside your house from a music room or family room.
2. What room requires soundproofing? i.e. Is it a stud partitioned room, an attic conversion, a brick walled room or a concrete lined cellar.
3. From what direction does the noise appear to be coming? i.e. Through the flooring, walls, ceiling, doors or windows or a combination of all of these.
4. How big is the room that you need to have soundproofed?

With answers to these queries a good soundproofing specialist in Writtle will come up with solutions for your situation, and just as importantly, your spending budget. There'll be distinct solutions for each of the main key areas of the room you wish to soundproof.

PROFESSIONAL SOUNDPROOFING OF FLOORS, CEILINGS and WALLS

To soundproof any kind of room requires 2 key approaches:

1. Sound absorption will have to be increased.
2. Lower the effect of sound vibration, reflection and amplification by hard surfaces.

To effectively determine the soundproofing areas that need to be improved, a site survey needs to be performed by a soundproofing expert.

The team will work out ways to add materials that have different densities and masses to increase the sound absorption properties of the area. This extra mass will help to enhance the absorption of sound through the use of acoustic foam or rubber to achieve the maximum sound reduction impacts.

Voids between joists might require insulation to eliminate resonation gaps between them. If you imagine a drum for instance, you are looking at a noise amplifying void enclosed within a resonating material; fundamentally what you might encounter inside floor and ceiling joists, or wall cavities.

Soundproofing is improved if different densities and materials are employed, as opposed to installing a single kind of material. This is due to the fact that the various frequencies are absorbed differently by different materials, therefore a diversity of layers, shapes and densities within your soundproofing panels are needed.

All soundproofing companies in Writtle have to follow the legislation for domestic buildings laid out in Part E of the Building Regulations. This set of regulations is a requirement in law to protect yourself and neighbours from being affected by sound pollution in an area where folks live and work.

Look for companies showing the logos of the Institute of Acoustics (IOA) or the Association of Noise Consultants (ANC) to make certain you are using a business that's knowledgable and fully qualified in the soundproofing industry. A reliable soundproofing contractor in Writtle will have undergone a vetting procedure for the quality and professionalism of their workmanship to have been accepted as a member of these trade organisations.

Acoustic Mineral Wool (AMW)

Acoustic mineral wool (AMW) is one of the handiest materials for soundproofing homes and buildings in Writtle and has a number of different applications for your noise reduction needs. Absorbing sound waves, reducing reverberation and enhancing acoustic performance, acoustic grade mineral wool is designed specifically for installation in the cavity spaces of walls, floors and ceilings.

Readily available in thicknesses of 25mm, 50mm, 75mm and 100mm, acoustic mineral wool generally comes in 600mm x 1200mm "slabs". AMW is safe to use in your home in Writtle, as it is chemically inert and and is non-combustible, it is also environmentally-friendly being partly made with recycled materials. It does not react with plastics, metal wall ties, masonry, brickwork, or other materials or substances that it comes into contact with, nor does it encourage the development of bacteria, mould or fungi.

AMW is especially effective as a sound absorption infill when installed in the spaces between suspended ceilings, floor joists and stud partitions, and is widely used in the construction sector for fire, thermal and acoustic insulation. When applied in partnership with other sound absorbing materials, acoustic mineral wool can help in complying with The Building Regulations (Part E) when it comes to separating walls and floors.
