Up to 5 yearsTips Before Starting Soundproofing Works
Determining the type of noise: Accurately identify the type of noise that bothers you — airborne noise (talking, TV, dog barking) or structural/impact noise (footsteps, moving furniture, drilling). Different types of noise require completely different insulation materials. Comprehensive approach: Insulating the wall alone is often insufficient, as sound waves travel structurally to the ceiling and floor as well. For the best results, a comprehensive covering of the problematic zones is necessary. Combination of materials: Effective soundproofing relies on a combination of two material types: sound-absorbing (porous materials, e.g., specialized rockwool) and sound-reflecting/barrier (heavy, dense materials, e.g., soundproofing membranes). Preventing acoustic bridges: During installation, metal profiles must not directly touch the wall or ceiling. The craftsman must use specialized vibration isolation hangers and damper tapes; otherwise, the sound will still transfer from the wall to the metal frame. Sockets and utilities: Wall outlets and switches are major conductors of sound. When installing soundproofing, standard electrical boxes should be replaced with specialized acoustic backing boxes. 💡 Reclaim your peace of mind: Find certified soundproofing and acoustics specialists based on authentic experience and portfolios on the platform: services.ss.ge
Frequently Asked Questions - Soundproofing
The thickness of an effective soundproofing system typically ranges from 5 to 10 cm, depending on the materials used (frame, rockwool, membrane, acoustic drywall). Ultra-thin systems (2 to 3 cm) do exist, but their efficiency is relatively lower.
Muffling footsteps from the upstairs neighbor is the most challenging task. For a perfect result, the insulation should be installed directly under the flooring (beneath the screed) of the upstairs neighbor. If that is not possible, installing a vibration-isolated suspended ceiling system in your apartment can significantly reduce the noise (by 60% to 80% on average).
Thermal insulation materials (such as standard styrofoam or XPS) are lightweight and contain air bubbles; they retain temperature well but block almost no sound. Soundproofing, on the other hand, requires materials with a specific fibrous structure combined with heavy, high-density barriers.
