Do you have a wooden ceiling and are experiencing noise disturbance from the room above? Improving the sound insulation of the ceiling may be a suitable solution. Wooden ceilings have less mass than concrete ceilings, which means airborne noises, such as voices, can more easily transfer to the space below.
When you mainly experience noise from airborne sounds, such as talking or music, insulating the ceiling is very effective. If it concerns impact noise, for example footsteps or falling objects, ceiling insulation works best in combination with a floating floor in the space above. Without this additional measure, vibrations can still be transmitted downwards through the structure, such as walls.
Is a floating floor not possible? Then you can also opt for a box-in-box construction within the space itself. This combines an insulated ceiling with decoupled partition walls and a floating floor, effectively creating an insulated box within the room. Please note that this requires a significant amount of space, time, and budget. Therefore, we always recommend addressing the nuisance at its source. This is generally the most effective approach.

Do you want to make a wall soundproof? Sound insulation works well for airborne noise such as speech. If it concerns impact noise like vibrations from a washing machine, wall insulation is often not enough. In this article, you will learn how to effectively improve the sound insulation of a wall with the right system and material.
Because many hard floors such as wood and concrete are used, impact noise such as footsteps spreads more easily. A soundproof underlayer is therefore essential to limit this noise transmission.
A cavity is the hollow space between two parts of a construction, such as between two walls. This space often plays an important role in sound insulation and can be filled with suitable material, also known as cavity filling.
