About Our Company
We are a dedicated team of apartment soundproofing specialists delivering proven, apartment-friendly solutions backed by rigorous training, safety compliance, and a 10-year transferable workmanship warranty. Our approach blends engineering discipline with respectful on-site practices, ensuring quieter living without compromising aesthetics, building rules, or long-term property value.
How Our Soundproofing Process Works
From the first call to final verification, our process is transparent and disciplined, combining a free on-site acoustic assessment, a tailored plan with itemized pricing, spotless installation practices, and documented results that align with your goals and building requirements.
Walls, Floors, and Ceilings Solutions
We engineer layered systems for walls, floors, and ceilings that increase mass, decouple structures, and seal air gaps, balancing acoustic performance, thickness, budget, and tenant constraints to deliver meaningful reductions in both airborne and impact noise throughout your apartment.
Wall Upgrades: Mass, Damping, and Decoupling
For loud neighbors, TVs, and city noise, we combine added mass with constrained layer damping and resilient decoupling to interrupt vibration transfer. Outlets and seams receive specialized putties and acoustic sealants, while trim reinstallation preserves aesthetics. The result is a higher STC rating, less speech intelligibility, and significantly quieter adjacent rooms.
Floor Assemblies: Impact and Airborne Noise Control
To reduce footsteps and bass transfer, we install acoustic underlayments, isolation pads, and floating floor systems with perimeter breaks that prevent rigid contact. Materials are selected for IIC improvements without excessive height. We coordinate transitions, baseboards, and door clearances, ensuring a durable, comfortable finish that meets condo bylaws and performance goals.
Ceiling Isolation: Clips, Channels, and Insulation
Ceiling systems use isolation clips and hat channels to decouple drywall from joists, filled with mineral wool to absorb energy. Damping compounds reduce resonance, while fixtures, sprinklers, and access points are carefully detailed. This approach addresses voices, music, and footfall, improving overall comfort without compromising safety systems or maintenance access.
Door and Window Noise Control
We quiet common flanking paths by upgrading doors, adding seals and thresholds, and retrofitting windows with acoustic inserts or laminated glass, delivering dramatic reductions in hallway chatter, elevator noise, traffic, sirens, and street-level disturbances without altering your apartment’s exterior appearance.
Acoustic Door Packages
We replace hollow cores with solid-core slabs, add perimeter compression seals, and install automatic door bottoms to block air and sound leakage. Where permitted, vestibule strategies and secondary doors are considered. These upgrades significantly cut hallway noise, improve privacy, and pair well with wall assemblies for consistent, predictable acoustic performance throughout the entry.
Window Inserts and Laminated Glass Retrofits
Custom, low-profile window inserts create an insulating air gap that blocks traffic roar and sirens, while laminated glass upgrades further reduce transmission at problematic frequencies. Solutions are removable for cleaning, maintain daylight and views, and are typically HOA-friendly. Combined with sealing, they deliver notable dB reductions without altering the building façade.
Perimeter Sealing and Flanking Path Blocking
Small gaps around casings, sills, and frames can undermine otherwise strong assemblies. We use backer rod, acoustic sealants, and specialized gaskets to close leaks, treating weep paths thoughtfully to maintain drainage. This final sealing pass delivers noticeable improvements, preventing whistling drafts and boosting both energy efficiency and real-world acoustic results significantly.
Renter-Friendly, Reversible Solutions
For tenants seeking quieter living without permanent alterations, we offer removable panels, non-invasive window treatments, and portable partitions that install cleanly, protect deposits, and move with you, providing meaningful noise reduction while respecting lease restrictions and building guidelines.
Removable Acoustic Panels and Baffles
We design decorative, high-performance panels mounted with damage-free systems, targeting reflection points and shared walls. Fabrics and cores are selected for fire ratings and low VOCs. Panels control echo, reduce perceived loudness, and meaningfully cut mid-to-high frequency transmission, all while remaining fully reversible and easy to relocate to your next apartment.
Non-Invasive Window Treatments
Acoustic curtains, compression-fit inserts, and precision weatherstripping reduce exterior noise without fasteners or adhesives. These treatments preserve frames, require minimal tools, and are removable for moves or seasonal changes. They are ideal for traffic-heavy blocks, near schools, or transit lines, delivering quick wins while planning any future permanent upgrades.
Compliance, Safety, and Building Coordination
We coordinate with property managers, superintendents, and HOAs, follow fire codes and quiet hours, provide insurance certificates, and schedule deliveries and waste removal to keep your project smooth, compliant, and neighbor-friendly from start to finish.
Fire-Rated Assemblies and Safe Materials
Where required, we specify UL-tested assemblies, Class A finishes, and fire-blocking details around penetrations. Damping and sealants are selected for appropriate ratings. We maintain clearance around sprinklers and alarms, document components, and provide cut sheets, ensuring your soundproofing respects life-safety requirements and satisfies building management and inspection standards.
Permitting, Insurance, and HOA Communication
We assist with permit needs, provide certificates of insurance, submit submittals, and share schedules with your building. Our team addresses quiet hours, freight elevator bookings, and debris protocols. This proactive approach prevents delays, protects common areas, and gives management confidence that your project is handled professionally, safely, and transparently at every step.
Site Protection, Dust Control, and Clean-Up
We protect floors and furniture, isolate work zones with zipper walls, and use HEPA air scrubbers and vacuums. Daily clean-ups maintain order, while disposal follows building rules. Post-completion, we perform a white-glove sweep and walkthrough so your home returns spotless and ready for immediate, quieter everyday living.
Measured Results and Acoustic Verification
We benchmark before and after performance with calibrated tools and provide a concise report, demonstrating STC and IIC improvements, confirming seal integrity, and verifying real-world results that align with expectations and investment.
Baseline Noise Survey and Goals
We record representative day and night levels, characterize frequency content, and observe flanking behavior. Together, we define target reductions and priorities, such as intelligibility of speech, bass control, or footfall mitigation. This data-driven start ensures the design aligns with your comfort expectations and constraints like thickness, budget, and schedule.
Post-Installation Testing and Fine-Tuning
After installation, we repeat measurements, check seals, and address minor gaps or rattles. Where appropriate, we use tapping measurements for impact control and frequency analysis for airborne issues. Small adjustments, like threshold tuning or outlet putties, are completed promptly to lock in the best possible, verifiable performance for your space.
