How to Soundproof an Apartment

 

Noise from neighbours is one of the most common problems in modern homes. Conversations, television, music, footsteps from above or noise from appliances can significantly reduce comfort at home.

 

If you can hear your neighbours through the wall or ceiling, this means the structure of the home lacks sufficient soundproofing. The good news is that this problem can be solved — modern acoustic materials can significantly reduce noise and create a calm, comfortable environment.

 

Why noise from neighbours is heard

 

In most residential buildings, walls are made of concrete, brick or plasterboard. These materials easily transmit vibrations and sound waves.

 

Main causes of poor soundproofing:

 

✔ thin walls

✔ lack of an acoustic layer

✔ empty spaces in the structure

✔ direct transmission of vibrations

 

To reduce noise, an additional soundproofing layer needs to be created.

 

The best materials for soundproofing

 

Two of the most effective materials for soundproofing apartments are Cotton Antisound and Polyest Antizvuk. They absorb sound waves and significantly reduce noise between rooms.

How to soundproof correctly

 

For the best result, you need to determine where the noise is coming from, what the wall structure is, and what type of insulation is needed.

 

Most commonly insulated are the wall between apartments, the ceiling and internal partitions. Combining the right materials can significantly reduce noise levels.
