Struggling with a noisy workplace or home? A great way to reduce noise levels is by installing sound insulation for walls.

With the correct types of wall soundproofing, you can find some peace and quiet with benefits including improved quality of life, a more welcoming work environment and better thermal insulation of your property.

Soundproof Wall Insulation

When learning how to soundproof a wall, you’ll first need to select the best material to provide adequate insulation. Most insulation to soundproof a domestic or commercial building is available to buy online at Workplace Interior Shop:

• Acoustic Rolls  – Most acoustic rolls consist of glass mineral wool. By cutting this to size and installing it between the wooden joists of your wall, you can help insulate the room for heat loss and noise.
• Acoustic Slabs – Acoustic slabs can be fitted between the joists and studs in a wall, as well as floors and ceilings to give you added thermal and acoustic insulation in your building.
• Acoustic Plasterboard – Acoustic plasterboard is effective at soundproofing walls and provides additional protection if you don’t have much space available when insulating your building.

How to Soundproof a Wall

Soundproofing walls, floors and ceilings should be fairly straightforward and quick to do. The building industry generally follows standardised measurements for the studs and joists found in your walls. Acoustic insulation rolls are made as a similar width as these. Once the job is completed, you can fix standard or acoustic plasterboard to your wall’s wooden joists to seal the cavity.
