What Is Acoustic Floor Insulation?
Acoustic floor insulation, often referred to as 'acoustic flooring', is a smart way of reducing unwanted noise within your property. Instead of relying on the finished surface alone (such as wooden flooring), it uses different layers installed beneath the floor's surface to minimise noise, leading to a quieter, more comfortable environment.
Sub-floor layers such as rubber, mineral wool, dense acoustic boards, or specialist membranes are installed beneath the final flooring, absorbing sound as it travels.
The result is a floor that feels solid underfoot but quietly works in the background to limit both impact noise (like footsteps) and airborne noise (such as voices or music).
In practice, acoustic flooring becomes part of the building’s fabric. It fits neatly into new builds and renovation projects alike, as its able to adapt to timber joists, concrete slabs, and modern floating floor systems with ease.
How Is Acoustic Floor Insulation Installed?
As leading acoustic floor insulation suppliers and installers, GM Floor Screeds offer an end-to-end, hassle-free service. Our comprehensive installation involves complete project management from start to finish. This includes:
- Initial Assessment: Our team evaluates your property to understand the specific requirements, including the type of floorboards and the desired U-values, which measure the insulation's effectiveness.
- Selection: Based on the assessment, we choose the appropriate insulation boards and acoustic layers that meet the robust detail or pre-completion testing standards.
- Installation: We install the chosen insulation and acoustic materials with our team of experts, ensuring your acoustic floor insulation fits perfectly and is ready to deliver exceptional sound-proofing for your domestic or commercial property.
- Testing: Testing: After installation, we carry out thorough pre-completion testing to confirm that the acoustic performance meets or exceeds regulatory standards. This ensures you achieve optimal sound insulation and peace of mind before finalising your flooring.
Our service saves you from the hassle of having to manage multiple contractors, giving you a single point of contact for a convenient, time-saving solution.
Benefits of Acoustic Floor Insulation
Acoustic flooring offers a range of benefits that can transform your living or working space:
- Noise Reduction: These floors significantly reduce sound transmission, significantly reducing noises from traffic, weather, and other external sources. This is particularly beneficial in multi-story buildings or areas prone to external noise.
- Thermal Insulation: Because these layers double up as insulation, they also help to maintain heat inside a room while keeping disruptive noise out. This creates a more settled indoor environment without demanding constant heating.
- Compatibility with Underfloor Heating: Acoustic flooring can be integrated with underfloor heating systems, ensuring that your space remains thermally efficient while maintaining a quiet environment.
- Versatility: Suitable for various types of floorboards, including suspended, solid, and tiled floors, acoustic insulated flooring enhances both new and existing structures.
- Energy Efficiency: Floor insulation helps retain heat, reducing the rate at which your home loses warmth. This can lead to significant savings on energy bills over time.
- Enhanced Comfort: By preventing heat loss and providing soundproofing benefits, insulated flooring ensures a more comfortable living or working environment.
