- The greater Denver area from Ft. Collins to Castle Rock
Thanks to lightweight home construction, open floor plans, and a multitude of noisy machines and loud entertainment gear, today’s houses are noisier than ever. Unless a house is equipped with some form of soundproofing, it can be insufferable at times. And then there are the neighbors. Trying to quiet noisy neighbors in apartments and condos—or noisy neighborhoods—is even harder. How do you soundproof a room to block outside noise? Keep in mind high and mid range frequencies are a bit easier to manage but those annoying low frequency bass sounds are very difficult to eliminate.
Soundproofing places like a bedroom to lower noise levels to the absolute minimum can allow for a restful sleep. Soundproofing walls in your home prevents outside noises from coming in. Your neighbor deserves their comfort as well. Therefore, soundproofing your house will not only provide your home with peace and quiet, but will also ensure that your neighbor can have some comfort and enjoy a restful sleep too.
Soundproofing is about controlling noise. So ask yourself, “What noise do I want to control?” Broadly speaking, noise control falls within two categories — either controlling the quality and nature of sound that is generated within your home, like music rooms, or blocking sound you don’t want to hear, like traffic noises. Both of these involve stopping the unwanted movement of sound from one place to another and dampening echoes.
Two soundproofing techniques are used for controlling the movement of sound:
Crafting specialty soundproof doors, windows, and Helmholtz resonating acoustic panels are common sound dampening SOLUTIONS for rooms like theaters, music venues and studios.

FAQs
Sound Absorption
Sound absorption is the process of converting sound energy into heat. It requires a soft, porous material. Sound absorbing materials are usually light and fluffy such as egg crate foam. If you want to block sound, this is not the material you need. When referring to sound absorption, you should look for products that absorb echo in a room – such as a foam or fiberglass material. Sound Absorption is best used in large areas with reflective surfaces, such as restaurants, lobbies, and conference rooms.
Sound Blocking
If you want a product that will stop or block a sound, you’ll need a heavier, denser material. For example, adding extra layers sheetrock to your walls to make them thicker. However, many people do not think about the sound coming in through their windows and doors. Adding an extra layer to your windows and doors is not only less of a hassle, but it is cheaper and less damaging to the original structure of the house.
