Hi,
I'd love some advice on what to use to soundproof a bedroom.
We have a Victorian terrace with a slightly shoddy build quality, and next door live some students The party wall in this bedroom has a chimney breast on it, so we'd be soundproofing the two alcoves (each about 1100 x 2500). It's single brick. The room is small, so space used up is of concern.
We were all set to go with http://www.soundstop.co.uk/solutions/wall_solutions/wall_solution_4.php this stuff from soundstop, though are a bit miffed with the high delivery charges!
Also looking at rock wool (which we've used in the master bedroom, shoved behind the built in wardrobes and under the floorboards) which works really well. However the stick on panels from soundstop seem like a much more straight forward option (with rock wool we'd have to do the batton thing, right??)
It won't actually be us doing it, we are trying to crack on with the renovations and have a very handy handyman. However he has little experience of soundproofing (other than our built in wardrobes!) so it's sort of up to us to source whatever is to be used.
So, does anyone have any experience with this soundstop stuff? Or does anyone have any suggestions of anything that would be better?
