Soundproofing a Room
Every NYC soundproofing scenario is unique when soundproofing a room. We consider all possibilities for sound transfer and apply our proven techniques with the necessary threshold catered to your particular soundproofing needs. Our suggestions for soundproofing treatments are at a base level assessment for what we think is necessary for each room.
Frequencies that irritate us the most reside between 150hz-5khz, with our ears being most sensitive to frequencies between 1khz-5khz (think nails on a chalkboard, a knife scratching a plate, and even a babies cry).
Higher Frequency noise levels between 750hz-28kz will get significantly muffled by 1 layer of 5/8 in. sheetrock. Problems arise when there are holes in the sheetrock from recessed lighting, ductwork registers, light switches, etc.
Low frequency vibration is the hardest to eliminate, therefore we cannot guarantee 100% of your sound issues below 150hz will be resolved. 20% reduction at 50hz would be considered amazing work. Frequencies below 50hz are recognized as sound pressure, not necessarily audible to human ear, with the same treatment dropping mid range frequency of 400hz by 60%, 750hz by 80% and in most cases making anything above those frequencies completely inaudible. For the human ear, these levels of reduction are significant and will satisfy your expectations for a soundproof treatment.
A common NYC ceiling soundproofing scenario would be a resting room level of 58 decibels, noise from above peaking at 90db with a constant noise level of 77db per min. If we decouple the ceiling, soundproof drywall installation, green glue, seal all cracks and gaps around pipes and electrical with acoustical caulking, we may achieve a constant noise level of 65db. This would be the equivalent to normal street noise, the difference being, the multiple layers of mass and sound proof insulation are reducing the irritating frequencies to humans by 80-100%.
To end this story in laymen’s terms, our New York soundproofing treatments work, we make sure all of our clients are satisfied, we are in direct communication throughout the entire process.
How does that sound?
