    lounge wall

    Posted 06 June

    wanted the lounge wall sound proofed as we had noisy neighbours, so contacted Gareth who done a fanastic job from beginning to end. Told me all through the work what was happening could not fault him. I would recommend him no problem.

    Needed alcoves soundproofing.

    Posted 25 May

    Originally booked in months in advance, however this was not booked in and we had to figure out an alternative date. When the job was completed I mentioned about the fireback being soundproofed but as this was a gas fire he was unable to do this which made sense. After paying Gareth £3k to complete the soundproofing I made him aware that after close inspection there were gaps which he said there was no gaps when he left which I thought might be the reason why the soundproofing was failing. Gareth explained that we would need to treat the chimney void and spend more money on the soundproofing

    Response from The Soundproofing Specialists

    Richard did not want to get the full wall soundproofed I did not want to lose some of the brick arch features I had advised as always that it’s best to wrap around the chimney breast and cover all of the wall On the morning of the installation, I spoke with Richard for about 20 minutes about the complexities of the void inside the masonry buildup of the chimney breasts I had my concerns on the morning and said that I had doubts of how successful this particular installation would be because of how unusual it was Richard allowed me to continue even despite of the warning

    Soundproofing party wall

    Posted 13 May

    I needed to soundproof a wall shared with a noisy neighbour. Gareth got back to me really quickly with a really fair quote and his communication throughout was amazing. He drove 3 and a half hours to get to us, did a great job and was great company to have in our home. Will definitely recommend him to anyone needing work done.

    Gareth has soundproofed a party wall for me. Gareth's work is outstanding. He completed the job in one day. His work ethic is phenomenal and the results have made a massive difference. His work is faultless.
