Soundproofing a Ceiling Between Floors FOR GOOD!
Рет қаралды 88,515
3 жыл бұрынHow to soundproof a ceiling from structural noise is much better than soundproofing a ceiling from airborne noise. There are ways to sound proof your ceiling the right way and the wrong way. In this video I will show you how you can have your ceiling soundproofing project a success.
Just adding mass on the ceiling will not get rid of foot steps and stomping noise you will need to decouple the ceiling from the joist using resilient channel to have the sound decimate in the studs without reaching the ceiling!

Thank you, great advice! Might want to mention flanking as well when talking about impact noises as well as a couple things people can do to contest these issues. Firstly use a calibrated mic to take measurements of the noise. Building codes always include IIC ratings for multi dwelling constructions. A FIIC test can be conducted to see if the structure meets code or not. What is unfortunate is often the HOA or administration are ignorant of these issues and the details around them. Complaints of footfall noise are often ignored or seen as not important. Its important when I measure 70-90db @ 40HZ!! That's loud! Big old boom boom like a sub was installed in my ceiling.

Hi, Thank you for the video. I live on the ground floor, the architecture of the building is, above my master bedroom, upstairs neighbor has a living room, kitchen and a stairs going to the ground floor, the stair is shared by two units. I hear footsteps in the master bedroom so it seems its the impact noise I am dealing with. I don’t think I want to do major construction for ripping the ceiling to decouple the above floor with the ceiling. Is there any solution which does not requires any construction to lower the impact noise? And I am also curious, when looking at building to move in, what questions needs to be asked to make sure there is no impact noise from upstairs? I understand the airborne noise is avoided if there is double pane windows, for the impact noises what do I need to ask? Thank you!

What is the best way to soundproof a roof that have tray design. Like a 2 level/layer design with 4" drop for each level. Was thinking about coupling method along with insulation, but my concern is the hollow/space areas that will be left because of the 2 level tray system. as there will be a 4" hollow section on each level of the tray because of the drop, so that about a 8" hollow section from plus atleast another 1/2"to 1" to the concrete ceiling and spacing behind the middle section of the flat drywall. What would you suggest?
@deeeeeeps Жыл бұрын
I second the two layers of drywall. I've always done insulation with decent success but thought I'd give the two layers a shot. I feel it does close to ZERO help when it comes to impacts. I'm glad the home owner had me do it. Cuz I would have felt bad selling them that option.

@piggly-wiggly Жыл бұрын
Thanks for going over the different strategies for airborne vs impact noise. I think a good way to organize ceiling soundproofing is also by whether you can rip out the ceiling or not. It would be weird, I think, to rip out the ceiling but not put in soundproofing insulation. Similarly, it would be weird to rip out the ceiling but not use a resilient channel for the new drywall (if you can afford it). What's the added cost of a resilient channel if you've pulled down the ceiling? What's the added cost of adding soundproofing insulation if you've pulled down the ceiling? On the other hand, if you've added an extra layer of drywall because you didn't think you could afford pulling down a ceiling, how happy are you going to be? Are you going to wind up pulling down the ceiling anyway because it didn't do much?

Thinking about doing the rails on the ceiling and then just 2 layers of 5/8 drywall with green glue on the walls, also on ceiling obviously. Basement is unfinished. so far I've just walled up the perimeter and filled the ceiling joists with safe n sound. I'm walling up over the windows too. Thanks!

I live in a location that is about to be renovated soon. The above rooms are part of a short-term rental, and I deal with a lot of impact and audible noise. The audible noise is the least of the problem. The impact noise is the worst. I've been able to mitigate the audible noise by running fans and putting on some relaxing music. It doesn't eliminate it all together but it does seem to help somewhat. However, the impact noise cuts through this. Decoupling sounds like a great idea. But the problem is that the ceilings in my space are extremely low. Because of this I am very limited on height. So this is not going to be feasible. With that said, the floor above can be adjusted... Is there anything that can be done from this aspect?

We’ve had one BBIG FAT FAIL OF $5000 to re-do the existing ceiling of one room that was already done when we bought the house.The expert put 2x4s and rigid foam insulation and 5/8 sheet rock. This was all on top of an already finished ceiling. It did little to reduce impact noise. Now we want to finish the apt. Living room and bedroom LESS EXPENSIVELY and ecologically friendly. Why not reuse old carpet inside the ceiling? Thank you for your reply and you are welcome to come make a video.😊

Pple who play loud music will never go deaf. Kids will not stop running & jumping. Babies will not stop crying. Adults & teenagers will not stop screaming, fighting, dropping stones, slamming doors, blasting the TV, stomping their brick feet & bumping their cheap sqeaking beds against the walls day and night!!! Acoustic Tiles will do NOTHING to stop that NOISE!! In the meantime, there are three things you can do: (1) Keep filing complaints & lawsuits. (2) Stop the noise by making noise. It seems contradictory but the noise you give them back, is not like the noise you hear. And the noise they receive from you is not like the noise they consistently make. It Will Drive Them Crazy! So be ready!! It's a fight til the finish line! or (3) Get some noise cancelling headphones, try to save your money as best you can and MOVE.💯

Just move, I failed to fix it and had to move frok my own apartment gunna see if I can rent it or sell it later to cut my costs. Even with decoipling and resilient channels, pros only told me they could at most reduce the boise by hopefully 35% at MOST if Im lucky and expensive as hell. 35% is not MUCH if the impact boise is pretty loud and you can hear it through headphones, MOVE.
