The sound insulation of the upper and lower floors is not good. Is there any way to remedy it?

I hope to have a quiet environment to rest when I get home every day, but the square dance horn downstairs, the footsteps coming and going upstairs, and the noise of the decoration next door will always hinder our rest, so it is necessary to decorate and soundproof at home.

1, wall top sound insulation

If the ceiling is not soundproofed well, the footsteps upstairs will make people very upset, especially when they fall asleep at night, and it is easy to be awakened by the sudden footsteps upstairs. In fact, the solution is very simple, that is, to make a special soundproof ceiling with professional soundproof materials.

When choosing ceiling gypsum board, only the thickness reaches the standard can achieve sound insulation effect. In addition, some sound-absorbing and sound-insulating materials can be added to the middle layer, such as sound-absorbing cotton, high-density foam board and fabric sound-absorbing board.

2, the wall sound insulation

Solved the sound problem at the top, and of course, we need to consider the surrounding area. Noise can easily pass through thin walls, and sound insulation walls help to control noise.

3. Sound insulation of windows

In fact, 90% noise comes from windows, so installing soundproof windows will be a very useful solution. The soundproof window consists of two or three layers of glass with different thicknesses, which will be used in conjunction with the sealing strip to improve the sound insulation effect.

4. Sound insulation of doors

The tightness of the door is difficult to change, mainly because of the size of the gap around the door. If the gap is too big, sound can easily come in. At the same time, it shows that the door and frame do not match, and the design and installation are not enough.

Compared with hollow doors, solid wooden doors can effectively block the sound, because it has higher density and less air layer, so the sound will not spread easily, so the sound insulation effect is better.

5. Sound insulation of pipes

The sound insulation of pipes is also easily overlooked by many people. However, the poor layout of the pipes at home sometimes causes great interference to sleep. Therefore, before the renovation, you should choose the appropriate direction of the pipe to avoid the sound of the sewer pipe affecting the rest when sleeping. In the hard installation stage, the water pipe is wrapped with various sound insulation materials, such as sound insulation cotton and sound insulation felt.
