Silence is a comfort
you can build.

Soundproofing of apartments, houses and offices with drywall systems

Neighbours behind the wall, street noise, footsteps from above — all of it is solved by a properly built construction. We design and install soundproofing wall linings, partitions and ceilings on Knauf systems: mass + framing + mineral wool, with no “miracle materials” or empty promises.

What a proper construction delivers

Standard room partition ~35 dB
12 cm brick wall ~45 dB
Knauf soundproofing system 55–60+ dB

Every +10 dB feels twice as quiet. The difference between “I hear the neighbours talking” and “I hear nothing”.

What kind of noise we fight

Different noise travels differently — that's why there is no “universal material”. First we identify the problem type, then we choose the construction.

Airborne noise

Travels through air and walls: conversations, TV, music, a barking dog.

Solution: mass + airtightness + wool in the framing

Impact noise

Travels through the building structure: footsteps above, moving furniture, neighbours' renovation.

Solution: decoupled structures, ceiling on anti-vibration hangers

Low-frequency noise

Bass, elevator, boiler room, ventilation — the hardest one: it passes through light barriers.

Solution: double framing, added mass, special calculation

Insulation ≠ absorption

Two different tools — often confused, wasting money. A working solution usually combines both.

So sound doesn't pass through

Sound insulation

Blocks the path of sound between rooms: from the neighbours to you and from you to the neighbours. Works through mass, airtightness and decoupled structures — the framing never touches the wall directly.

For: walls towards neighbours, ceilings, bedrooms and kids' rooms, home cinemas.

So sound doesn't echo inside

Sound absorption

Removes echo and boominess inside a room: soft, porous materials “kill” sound reflections. The room stops ringing and speech becomes intelligible.

For: offices and meeting rooms, cafés and venues, studios, large living rooms.

Our solutions

All constructions are built on certified Knauf systems: metal framing, mineral wool, high-density boards. Figures and prices are indicative — exact ones follow the site survey.

Lining of an existing wall

Lining of an existing wall

The most common fix for “noisy neighbours behind the wall”. Independent framing, mineral wool, double board layer — without touching the old wall.

  • Takes only 7–10 cm of space
  • 1–2 days of installation per room
insulation gain +10–15 dB
indicative with material 25–40 €/m²
Soundproof partition wall

Soundproof partition wall

A new wall insulating as well as brickwork and better — at a fraction of the weight. Double cladding, wool, sealing of all joints.

  • Better insulation than 12 cm brick
  • For dividing apartments and offices
construction insulation 52–58 dB
indicative with material 30–45 €/m²
Soundproof ceiling

Soundproof ceiling

Against footsteps and noise from above: a suspended ceiling on anti-vibration hangers with wool. Plus built-in lighting and a perfectly flat surface.

  • Anti-vibration hangers absorb impact noise
  • Compatible with LED lighting
insulation gain +8–12 dB
indicative with material 35–50 €/m²
Room acoustics

Room acoustics

Absorbing ceilings and panels against echo and boominess: meeting rooms, cafés, studios, home cinemas. We calculate reverberation time instead of guessing.

  • Knauf Cleaneo perforated boards
  • Design panels matched to the interior
effect echo −50–70%

Why “just glue on some foam” doesn't work

Sound finds the weak spot. One installation mistake — and an expensive construction leaks like an ordinary wall. Typical “sound bridges” we see on site:

  • Sockets and junction boxes cut right through the insulating wall
  • Framing screwed rigidly to the wall without a damping tape
  • Unsealed gaps around the construction perimeter
  • Chases and cable holes drilled after the insulation was installed
  • “Acoustic” foam instead of insulation — it only helps against echo
Our approach: we don't sell “€5 miracle panels”. Only the system works: mass + airtightness + decoupling + wool. That's exactly how we build — with damping tapes, acoustic sealant and clean junction details. Every construction comes with an installation warranty.

How we work

1

Talk & site visit

We find out what noise bothers you and where it comes from. Visit and assessment are free.

We propose a construction for your problem and budget, with an honest dB forecast.

3

Installation

Built to Knauf technology: damping tapes, sealing, clean details.

4

Result

We hand over the work and explain what you can and can't do with the wall. Installation warranty.

Who needs it

Offices

Meeting rooms, private offices, open space

Venues

Cafés and restaurants — less boominess, no neighbour complaints

Frequently asked questions

A wall lining — usually 7–10 cm. That's the price of silence: thinner means weaker. “2 cm thin membranes with the effect of a concrete wall” are marketing — physics doesn't work that way.

Not enough — impact noise travels through the building structure. The right solution is a soundproof ceiling on anti-vibration hangers, combined with wall linings if needed.

It depends on the construction and the state of the building. After the site visit we give an honest dB forecast — and tell you upfront if a solution won't make sense in your case.

Lining one wall — usually 1–2 days, a ceiling 2–3 days, including joint finishing. The exact timeline comes with the quote.
