Acoustic Flooring Fixings
Traditionally, unwanted noise can travel through floorboards and disrupt the peacefulness of a space. Acoustic flooring fixings address this issue by dampening sound transmission and creating a more soundproof environment.
MGN Builders Merchants offers a variety of high-performance acoustic flooring fixings to meet your needs, including:
- Acoustic Floorboards: Products like the Cellecta 26mm Deckfon Chip Acoustic Chipboard and the Cellecta 28mm Screedboard provide a solid base with built-in sound absorption properties.
- Resilient Bars: The 50mm Resilient Bar acts as an isolation barrier, effectively dampening impact noise transmission through concrete floors.
- Flanking Strips: Cellecta Yelofon FS50 Flanking Strips create a perimeter barrier that helps prevent sound flanking through walls that connect to the floor.
- Flooring Adhesives: Cellecta ScreedBoard PRO Adhesive ensures a strong and secure bond between the acoustic floorboards and the subfloor.
- Metal Support & Reinforcement: Galvanised angles, like the GA1 Galvanised Angle, can be used for additional support and stability, particularly when installing acoustic floorboards on uneven surfaces.
What types of noise do acoustic flooring fixings reduce?
Acoustic flooring fixings are effective at dampening both impact noise and airborne sound. Impact noise refers to sounds caused by foot traffic or objects hitting the floor, while airborne noise includes sounds like voices, music, or traffic.
How much noise reduction can I expect with acoustic flooring fixings?
The amount of noise reduction you can achieve will depend on the specific products you use and the overall construction of your floor. However, acoustic flooring fixings can typically reduce noise transmission by 10-30 decibels (dB).
Do I need to remove my existing flooring to install acoustic fixings?
In some cases, it may be possible to install acoustic flooring fixings over your existing floor, particularly if you're using resilient bars or soundproofing membranes. However, for thicker acoustic floorboards, removing existing flooring may be necessary to ensure a level surface. It's always best to consult with a professional to determine the best approach for your specific situation.
