Acoustic insulation in South Point, for rooms that need to be quieter

Acoustic insulation in South Point, for rooms that need to be quieter

Airborne noise accounts for most of what travels between rooms in a South Point property -- voices, television, appliances -- and an open wall is the cheapest moment to fix it. In South Point we install acoustic batt and mineral wool into wall and floor cavities, filled edge to edge and uncompressed, before the board goes up. South Point is an Airdrie community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so basement ceiling height here varies from newer open basements to tighter clearance in the older homes nearby. We cover South Point and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of acoustic insulation in South Point?

Area, material and access

Acoustic insulation cost in South Point comes down to the wall or floor area being treated, the material — mineral wool costs more than standard batt and performs better for sound — and whether the cavity is already open or has to be opened up. We measure and give a fixed price before we start.

Open walls are far cheaper

Treating a South Point wall that is already open during a renovation or a new build costs a fraction of coming back to it later.

What acoustic batt achieves in a South Point wall -- and what it cannot

What it does

What it handles in a South Point wall is airborne noise within the cavity -- voices, television, music and appliances. A filled cavity is noticeably quieter than an empty one, and in most South Point homes it is the single biggest improvement available for the money.

What it does not do on its own

Batt in the cavity will not stop impact noise travelling through the structure — footsteps overhead, a door slamming, something dropped on the floor above. It also will not help if sound is going around the wall through a shared duct, a gap under a door or a hollow-core door itself.

Where the assembly comes in

Stopping impact and structural noise takes changes to how the wall is built — that is our soundproofing work, and the two are usually done together on the same wall. In South Point basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

How we install acoustic batt in South Point

Full cavity, cut to fit

We cut each piece to the cavity and friction-fit it so it fills the bay completely in your South Point wall. In a South Point wall the leaks are at the top plate, around outlets and at the perimeter -- and compressing a batt makes it worse, not better.

The places most crews skip

We fill the tight bays beside doors and windows, the space behind electrical boxes and the cavity above a dropped ceiling; leave those and the rest of the work is wasted. A lot of our South Point work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Common acoustic insulation situations in South Point

In South Point, south Point is a family community on Airdrie's south side, and our most common jobs here are basement drywall for finishing projects, crack and nail-pop repair, and ceiling texture work after renovations or pot-light installs. We handle all of it the same careful way — on-site quote, fixed price, done right.

Why South Point homeowners have us do the acoustic insulation

We are the ones closing the wall

As a drywall company we install acoustic batt the way we want to board over it — full fill, no gaps — because we are the trade that closes the wall in South Point and we do not get a second chance at it.

What we tend to find in South Point

South Point spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall genuinely differs street to street — which is why we look before quoting the acoustic insulation rather than after.

A lot of the work in South Point starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing and ducting above it.

FAQ — Acoustic Insulation South Point

Acoustic Insulation South Point: your questions answered

Will acoustic insulation make the room completely quiet in South Point?
No, and if someone tells you different about your South Point home they are overselling it. A filled cavity produces a noticeable drop in airborne noise in a South Point room, things like conversation and television. To get past that in a South Point property the construction of the wall itself has to change -- something we can handle.
How is acoustic batt different from regular insulation in a South Point home?
In South Point walls, acoustic batt and mineral wool outperform standard thermal batt because they are denser, and density is what absorbs sound. Standard batt helps, though in a South Point wall the denser material gets more out of the same space.
Can you insulate between floors in South Point?
Yes -- floor cavities between the main floor and a basement, or under an upstairs bedroom, are one of our most frequent acoustic batt jobs in South Point, and simple while the ceiling is open.
Do I need resilient channel in my South Point home as well?
It depends what is bothering you. Filling the cavity is generally sufficient for voices and television coming through a South Point wall. Filling the cavity will not solve footsteps or impact noise from above in a South Point house; that takes a change to the assembly.
Should acoustic batt go in both sides of a party wall in South Point?
There is usually one cavity in a South Point party wall, and it gets filled completely rather than handled as two separate pieces of work. Where a South Point wall is built as a double-stud assembly, both sides are filled. We also cover Bayside, Kings Heights, Coopers Crossing and the Airdrie area.
