But first, let’s explain what sound insulation testing really is

Sound insulation testing is, quite simply, a service that ensures your dwelling complies with Part E of the Building Regulations, which sets out exactly what a reasonable level of sound should be so that residents have a quiet and peaceful living space. A sound insulation test could be done in a new build home, converted flat, nursing home or hotel – basically any kind of residential home or dwelling.

The two main types of noises that our sound insulation test covers are airborne and impact noises. Airborne is a sound that’s transmitted through the air. This could be noise from a TV or a conversation between a few people. Impact noise is when a noise impacts something else, like someone closing a door or knocking on the wall.
