Acoustic Flooring Is Far From An Optional Extra
The installation of acoustic flooring in the home, either as part of a redevelopment project or brand new build, is incredibly important; in fact it’s a legal requirement! Not only that, but it also has to adhere to current building regulations in relation to noise emissions. Failure to implement it or choosing the incorrect type of acoustic flooring could prove very costly further down the line.
Why is it so necessary? The primary purpose of acoustic flooring is to reduce sound and the impact transmission of sound between floors and rooms.
The most common noises you tend to hear between neighbouring residences is the sound of voices or the noise of feet from above your head; two types of sound that can be lessened through the use of acoustic flooring. The quieter the atmosphere between two environments, the less likely it is that any unnecessary conflict will occur between neighbours.
