There are many reasons to soundproof a room. Your son's new drum set is one. Transforming a room into a theater is another-you'd hate for the newest action movie to be heard on the other side of the house when people are trying to sleep. Whatever your reason, you don't have to hire a professional to sound proof the room for you.
The room has almost taken on a depressing, almost deathly feel that makes you want to spend as little time in there as possible. You need a change, and all you can think of is to do a remodel.
Make your ceiling, walls or floor thicker. The more things you put between the sound making device and the room(s) you're trying to block from the noise.
While you are looking through your options, set some basic criteria to judge the different companies by.
You can build an extension onto the wall to act as a dropped ceiling. To sound proof your floors, you can install thick carpet with insulating foam.
If you're willing to spend some money on a project, you can do one simple thing to drastically improve the look of your current kitchen to make it bearable: replace your countertops with granite.
When you put things that are porous, thick and airy in the way, it has a tougher time getting through. Putting a tall bookshelf on an adjoining wall will significantly dampen the sound coming through.
It highlights and modernizes the feeling of the room. The counter can come in slabs as long as 10ft, meaning you will need few, if any seams. With only a few seams you can create an impressive countertop that feels extensive and expensive. It comes with a diverse selection of colors. You can purchase from a range of vibrant blues and mottled white down to midnight blacks and deep reds.
Thus, making your wall significantly more sound resistant than it was before.
Do not be afraid to express your budget ahead of time to see if it is even worth having a meeting with the company. When you find someone that can do your project within your budget, you will then want to talk to some references.
Diffusers are porous, foam like squares that capture sound. You see them hanging on the walls of movie and concert theaters.
As you can imagine, they make the cleaning process easy. You can also treat the stone with an impregnating sealer that will make it stain resistant for about 10 to 15 years.
The shape of the mount helps to diffuse how much sound bounces from one wall to the next, reducing the echo as well. Installing your own diffusers can add to the feel of a practice room or theater. For floors, you can add an area rug and furniture to sit on everywhere. Sound proofing the room is all about blocking it with things.
When your kitchen's got you singing the blues, and you can't afford a remodel, see how granite can help your cause. In a lot of ways its look and feel will make the kitchen a nice place to be in again.
The best part about soundproofing a room is that is works in both directions. If you don't want to be disturbed while practicing your drum beats or watching a movie, the sound proofing keeps out the noise just as much as it keeps in yours.
Building your home can be an exciting time. It can be hard to enjoy this time, but don't forget about your final goal and the home that you will eventually get to live in.
