Ceiling Soundproofing Solutions
Ceiling soundproofing is not as daunting as you think and has great results. Have a look at the different solutions we have.
If these solutions are not suitable for you, please don’t hesitate to contact the office to discuss your particular needs.
Genie Clip Ceiling:
If you have the space to lose, this system will help reduce impact and airborne noise. By decoupling the ceiling with the Genie Clip and furring channel helps for impact noise. Fitting the acoustic wool between the frame work and fitting 2 layers of acoustic plasterboards helps with density and that in turns helps with airborne noise.
Space lost approx. 83 mm (approx. 3-4 inches)
Estimated Airborne Improvement: 50-55% Estimated Impact Improvement: 50%

By replacing the first layer of acoustic board with dB15 Soundboard you can improve your system, adding additional mass and density will have an all-round improvement by an additional 20%.
Resilient Bar Ceiling:
This solution helps if you don’t have a lot of space to lose and you have timber joists. By removing the existing ceiling and fitting acoustic wool between the joist help damping the airborne noise. The Resilient Bar is then fitting to the joists and 2 layers of acoustic plasterboards is then fitted. This helps to decouple the existing ceiling and you don’t lose as much space.
Space lost approx. 31 mm (approx. 1-2 inches)
Estimated Airborne Improvement: 35-40% Estimated Impact Improvement: 30%

Independent Ceiling:
If you have ceiling space and want to achieve a good result, this system will help. Firstly, a gap of approx. 25mm is left before the new timber framework is built and acoustic wool is fitted in between. Then a Resilient Bar is fitted with 2 layers of acoustic plasterboard. This solution helps to reduce airborne and impact noise.
Space lost approx. 170 mm (approx. 6-7 inches)
Estimated Airborne Improvement: 60-65% Estimated Impact Improvement: 60%
