Modern living means many of us live close to our neighbours, in houses and apartments. With careful design, noise from neighbours can be controlled, so residents aren’t disturbed by noise from the adjacent home.
How we can help
- Conversions and refurbishments. We can test existing walls and floors before works start to see how well they perform, and advise on improvements if they’re needed.
- New-build homes. We review drawings and advise on the likely performance of wall and floor constructions, recommending improvements where needed.
- Detailing. On every project, we advise on critical details such as wall junctions, service penetrations and electrical boxes, which can undermine an otherwise high-performing wall or floor.
- Hard flooring. If you want to replace carpet with wooden or tiled floors and need to meet a lease condition, we can advise on the right construction and test the result.
- Noise problems. If you’re disturbed by neighbours, we can investigate the cause and recommend a solution.
