-Soundproofing is a very effective method of keeping sound out of your home. It reduces the noise pollution in residential homes, which can often be caused by traffic or surrounding properties.

-It consists of applying high quality materials to the inside of your walls and floors that will ensure that noises are not passed through the surfaces with ease. This works best for lower frequency sounds, such as bass sounds from music or people talking, but it can also work against higher pitched sounds too.

-The most common materials used are fiberglass insulation boards, rubber sheets and mineral wool panels which are all designed specifically with sound reduction in mind. These materials have been tested over time and they have shown great results when applied to both internal and external walls.

-The most common type of application is called ‘mass loaded vinyl’ which has a specially designed surface that reduces the noise transfer from one side of the panel to another. It also acts as a barrier so it can be installed on either side of a wall, depending on what needs to be reduced more. This is where it differs from other types of soundproofing; due to its ability to absorb sound across its whole surface, rather than just parts.

-A construction company will usually use this method when trying to prevent any sounds caused by building work or renovation works transferring into neighbouring properties, particularly if they are applying new windows or doors at the same time. The installation process involves using specialist materials, such as double-sided adhesive tapes, to attach the panels to the walls or floors. This method is also used more frequently in car garages where it needs to maintain an acoustic environment for workers.

-The main disadvantage of soundproofing is that it can be quite expensive and time-consuming, depending on how big the area needing sound reduction is; although this obviously depends on which material you choose to use too. It can also cause problems if you intend on selling your property as some people prefer not to live near properties with high levels of noise pollution.

-It’s also important to find a good quality company that can offer high quality soundproofing materials, as this is often reflected in their prices. This will ensure that the job is done properly and you’ll get longer lasting results. Some professional companies even have vibration insulation measures in place too, which avoids any noise associated with movement of pipes or other services behind walls for example.

-Mass loaded vinyl sound proofing panels are one of the easiest ways to stop noises from entering your property if they are being caused by renovation work or noisy neighbours. They are easily installed into both internal and external areas, although it tends to be more effective when applied internally due to internal structures bouncing sounds back off the walls rather than absorbing them. It also helps to stop noise pollution from entering your home.

-This is a very effective method and it provides high quality sound reduction across the whole surface of the panels; which differs to other types of soundproofing that can only absorb certain frequencies. Despite this, it can be relatively expensive as well as time-consuming if larger areas need treatment and care must be taken when exposing vinyl as you will need specialist tools such as double sided tape to apply them.
