The minimum requirements for sound insulation are set out clearly in Approved Document E of the Building Regulations and must be met.
How we can help you with sound insulation
Our sound insulation advice and experience gives building contractors and architects the confidence they need that their building will meet minimum requirements.
When appointed, we examine the sound insulation requirements and the construction selected. Many different sorts of construction will provide adequate sound insulation, whilst many older constructions offered in conversions may provide only poor sound insulation. Whatever the circumstance, achieving the correct level of sound insulation is essential.
Sound insulation testing
In the event that the construction specification and build has already taken place, we can test the sound insulation. The test can be carried out quickly to determine if the sound insulation achieves minimum requirements.
Entertainment venues
We provide sound insulation advice to nightclubs and other entertainment venues. Local authorities often require confidence that the sound insulation afforded by a venue is adequate before they license the premises. Providing adequate sound insulation in these kinds of venue is imperative in preventing noise disturbance to nearby residential accommodation.
Based in London we advise on UK and international projects.
