Domestic Bedroom & Ceiling Soundproofing

Sector: Domestic
Location: Saltford
Project: Bedroom and Roof Soundproofing

Client Request:

“To achieve an uninterrupted nights’ sleep by eliminating unwanted road traffic noise”

The Project:

After recently moving into a lovely detached house on the A4 (between Saltford & Bath, UK) our clients discovered that their sleeping patterns were disturbed by significant road noise - penetrating through their roof, and into their bedroom. The noise was so severe they decided to take immediate action, just weeks after moving in.

After an initial home visit, we were able to isolate the problem and design a soundproofing system that would drastically reduce the unwanted traffic noise travelling through the roof, and into the bedroom. Our clients temporarily moved into another room whilst we began stripping back the existing plasterboard + timber stud construction, discarding all existing materials, ready to start again.

Our client chose the NR-2000W/C* option which results in a 112mm reduction in room size using a combination of RW45 Rockwool, dedicated interlocking Soundplank boards (with an additional rubber soundsheild layer) fixed into a maxi resilient bar, offering isolation from the existing timber structure - in which the room is built upon.

*The NR2000 system greatly reduces both general airbourne noise, and produces excellent results inimpact noise reduction.

The Result:

After plastering, painting, re-laying the carpet, and finishing the bedroom…our clients moved back in…and were able to achieve a continual good nights sleep, uninterrupted.

    • I’m very happy with the quality of the work, the finish is fantastic and you’d never be able to tell a whole load of soundproofing materials have been installed above the plastered ceiling. The installers were really friendly, pleasant guys. They were very professional, thorough, and extremely tidy too! Best of all though, the reduction in noise from upstairs has massively exceeded my hopes – what was a constant source of sleep interruption and tired days, is now nothing more than the occasional faint sound. Worth every penny. Thanks again.

    • Very professional service. Dowlings inspected the room and recommended Maxiboard - then provided a firm quote which they stuck to and a schedule which they did not run over. The work took a 5 days to do a ceiling and one wall. They took great care to keep mess down to a minimum and left the place as clean and tidy as you could realistically expect. It was expensive but you only get what you pay for. And the good news is it worked. The noise of TVs, voices, phones ringing have all been blocked out. The foot-fall noise from above has been cut to a tolerable level. Good work!

    • I asked The Sound Proofer to soundproof two walls in a top floor bedroom that had road noise and poor thermal insulation. Through chatting with Nick I was able ascertain the type of soundproofing needed and was provided a fixed price quote. Communication was excellent and they did exactly what was spec'ed out and agreed, the work started on time and continued until it was finished. I'm very pleased with the work carried out and would say that The Sound Proofer are a very professional outfit.
