Hi all,
I have a small conservatory with a polycarb roof and the neighbours recently told me they can clearly hear my music and even our conversations when they are upstairs and their window is open.
The sound is coming through the polycarb roof. We don't even play music loud but I'm concerned at disturbing their peace and I'm not particularly delighted they can hear our conversations.
Does anyone know of any solutions to improve the soundproofing without having to replace the polycarb with glass ?
I have Googled to death and nothing relly comes up for this. All the soundproofing relates to walls or celings and involves material that would completely block out the light from the roof. One website hinted that acrylic sheets are good for soundproofing. I am considering buying a few sheets and sticking them internally under the existing polycarb onto the supporting beams and sealing it so there is an air gap.
Or is there some material that can be layed on top of the conservatory to deaden the sound a bit ? Or some stick on sheets ? I'd try anything !
I'm not interested in completely cutting out the sound but just taking the edge of it.
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Gary
