Soundproofing a brick party wall.

Hi Tania,

We have done many similar jobs like yours. The trick is to isolate as much of the vibration transferring from one side of the wall to your side. this is normally done by building a steel stud wall that only connects at the bottom and the top of the new wall, line with sound insulation and apply the Quiet Rock. In your case, it may be possible to attach steel fir channels to do some of the work, and attach in only a few places, then apply some sound batt and Quiet Rock. Perhaps it would be best to leave this to an expert, I suggest you have one or two come in to see it in person.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tanya Another way to effectively reduce sound transmission is with

lead sheathing. The product is about 1/64" thick and can be covered with drywall, it has the sound dampening qualities of a 6" concrete wall. The product is called Sheald and can be found at Canada Metal website

It is a Toronto based Company.

Is the dividing wall brick? or studs and drywall/plaster? Is there any sort of space in the wall that can be insulated. I have a product that can be injected into a cavity and works great at soundproofing. Its called airkrete. Its made as in injectable insulation, but has soundproofing qualities.

i think you are better off with double Quiet Rock installed on resilient bars. since you don't have lots of space.

Yes, there is, take a look here: sound proof partitions Which is a customizable range of partition panels that conforms to the customer's precise specifications. As a soundproof operable system, sound proof partition wall is the best choice for places where noise reduction and space dividing are the primary task.

For straight-line openings that do not require multiple locations or offset storage, soundproof partition wall system is ideal. Fast and easy setup is possible because the panels are collected in groups and easy to move in a straight line.
