A Guide to Sound Control by Santa Rosa Commercial Property Builders

Working with commercial property builders can help you create that ideal sound control space within your Santa Rosa property. Whether you’re looking to build a studio or simply control sound transmission across the building environment, Holly Construction can help you to learn more about the process. In this latest post, our commercial property builders in Santa Rosa explain our guide to sound control.

Consider the Source of Noise

One of the first elements to take into consideration when constructing a building for optimal sound control is the source of the sound. The source, such as stores, schools, traffic and airports will often be taken into consideration when mitigating sound transmission. Your general contractor can work with you to determine sources and suggest solutions.

Proper Building Layout

When considering sound transmission, commercial property builders in Santa Rosa must closely review the layout for the property. The goal is to keep the sound as far away as possible from the areas that require peace and quiet, for example, in offices.

Special Soundproofing Options

For certain types of jobs commercial builders handle, you may need special soundproofing options. Make sure rooms such as the theaters and the leisure rooms have soundproofing elements to further eliminate sound transmission issues. The use of spray foam insulation, extra layers of drywall and off-set studs help to minimize the transmission of sound in areas where control is imperative.

When To Think About Soundproofing

While sound control can often be effectively completed at most stages of the building process, after the building has been constructed, further sound control systems are cost prohibitive. It’s important to take sound control into full consideration and clarify decisions you need to make before building; thereby ensuring property owners have the ideal space for their use from the first time they step into the property.
