UNRIVALLED SOUNDPROOFING

Oscar Iso-Mount

For many people, particularly those living in flats, the thumping of footsteps or loud music heard from noisy neighbours above can impact wellbeing, sleep and even lead to physical health issues.

Building Regulations Document E sets minimum standards for soundproofing residential buildings in England and Wales. While these ensure new-builds and conversions comply, the standards don’t apply to existing dwellings, leaving hundreds of thousands of previously built properties with inadequate sound insulation.

THE SOLUTION

When noise from above is a problem, the simplest solution is to create an isolated, floating ceiling using Oscar Iso-Mount acoustic hangers, which are not only compliant, but exceed the requirements set out in Document E for airborne and impact sound.

These soundproof ceiling systems work by absorbing the vibrations and sound pressure waves that cause the transfer of unwanted noise between floors.

Oscar Iso-Mount acoustic hangers are specially designed to be as nonobtrusive and space-saving as possible. They are height adjustable so can even be used across uneven joists to allow for a flat finish with minimum height loss. Once complete, it will appear no different to a standard plastered ceiling.

These soundproof ceiling systems work by absorbing the vibrations and sound pressure waves that cause the transfer of unwanted noise between floors.

Perfect for those working in flats, all labour is carried out from the room below with no work required to the floor above. This is easier than installing acoustic flooring because there is no need to alter heights of skirting boards and doors.

From houses, flats, conversions, newbuilds and renovations to commercial spaces such as hotels, offices, shops and restaurants, Oscar Iso-Mount is the perfect solution for significantly reducing unwanted noise from above.
