Soundproofing services

Wallpaper Kenya offers soundproofing services as soundproofing contractors. Our sound engineer specializes in reducing unwanted noise transmission in homes, businesses, and studios.

It is no secret that high-quality soundproofing of premises plays an important role in our lives. For some, it is important not to hear the noise from the equipment working in the house, someone is tired of neighbors, and someone dreams of concentrating and working in silence. This applies not only to apartments, but also to office premises.

Think about it: constant sounds of the highway outside the window cause heart failure, hypertension and angina. And normal office noise at work contributes to the development of insomnia. Eveb the noise of the computer system unit, fan or old refrigerator makes you constantly be in a state close to stress. So, soundproofing of premises is not an idle whim, but an urgent vital necessity.

The problem of soundproofing residential, industrial and office premises is becoming more and more urgent every year, which is primarily due to the increase in the number of noise sources, especially in large cities.

Sound insulation is a reduction in the level of sound pressure when a wave passes through an obstacle: walls, floors or ceilings. A sound wave in this case is noise generated by dozens of sources, from a car alarm or a working machine, to water dripping from a loosely closed tap.

Wallpaper Kenya offer a range of services, including:

Consultation services

An acoustic consultation tackles your noise woes!  A pro (acoustic consultant, who is a sound engineer) assesses your situation:

What’s bothering you? Office chatter? Home theater acoustics?

We then visit your space to measure noise levels and see how sound moves.

Based on our findings, we’ll recommend solutions. And that is either soundproofing materials, layouts, or even masking noise with a special system.

Think of Wallpaper Kenya as soundproofing superheroes, crafting a plan to achieve your ideal acoustic environment.

Soundproofing material selection and installation services

Achieving optimal soundproofing requires a thoughtful combination of material selection and proper installation techniques.

Wallpaper Kenya will source and install soundproofing materials like mass loaded vinyl (MLV), acoustic panels, and sound absorbing insulation.

Demand creates supply, and new soundproofing materials, technologies and solutions appear on the market. What types of them are most common in modern construction? And to what extent do they solve the problem of soundproofing various buildings and structures?

One of the large groups of building materials on the modern market is soundproofing material. Soundproofing material is usually made from synthetic or natural raw materials. Natural raw materials include basalt wool, expanded perlite, fireclay, foamed glass and kaolin wool, and synthetic raw materials include polyurethane foam, polyethylene foam, polypropylene foam, polyester foam, etc. The most durable soundproofing material is mineral wool made from rocks, in most cases, basalt. It has a huge number of positive qualities, such as fire resistance, hydrophobicity, vapor permeability and environmental friendliness.

Special mention should be made of the so-called professional “ready-made solutions” for soundproofing. This type of soundproofing material is considered exclusive and is sold only in professional soundproofing markets. Ready-made solutions include special kits designed for soundproofing work. These include soundproofing panels, sandwich panels, vibration-acoustic laminated panels, panels designed for additional insulation, and other materials. All soundproofing material designed for professional use has an additional insulation index, the value of which ranges from 5 to 18 decibels. Such structures are tested in special vibration-acoustic chambers. This makes it possible to most accurately calculate and predict their effectiveness in each specific case of use.
