Semi D soundproofing

9 months ago

Does anybody have any recommendations of soundproofing the party/adjoining wall of our semi d house. Looking for company recommendations as many places I’ve tried are no longer soundproofing. Also wondering would insulation do a similar job?

You should have a professional installer in your area take a look at your home so you can discuss what end result you are wanting. You may need to use an engineered wood. This is still an all wood product and is much more dimensionally stable than solid wood. This is a huge advantage if you are in an older home or in the midwest where humidity levels can drastically change from season to season. A solid wood will cup or curl if humidity and moisture levels are not managed. Your installer should do a moisture test before installation to make sure the installation does not fail. All warranties will be voided if this step is not taken. Also, your transitions will need to be considered. Is the new wood floor going to butt up to tile, carpet, or vinyl? The height difference in the two products will need to be taken into consideration. You will have a greater selection of thicknesses in the engineered woods. Engineered wood should be several plys, all wood. If you choose a solid wood, the hand scraped versions are fantastic for a high traffic area with children. Hickory, Red Oak, most Brazilian Species, and even Bamboo are hard enough to take everyday traffic and still look terrific. Good luck!

Hi I notice your blind and lamp are Laura Ashley Pelham. Laura Ashley does a duck egg white, pale duck egg and duck egg paint colours. Maybe you could have the duck egg white as the predominant colour and use in both rooms but also use the pale duck egg or duck egg in the lounge, or add some wallpaper. Not sure grey walls would work with the kitchen units. Perhaps more of a taupe/warm grey would work in both spaces though.

Hi, Anyone know if it's possible to have some sort of sound eliminating material put in between existing plasterboard walls up stairs? I have a standard 3 bed semi detached house and noise between rooms especially the bathroom & main bedroom and the en suite and spare room is very loud. The rooms are small so putting extra soundproof plasterboard on to the existing walls would just make the rooms even smaller? Many thanks for any tips or advice!
