At Pro Soundproofing Ltd, we specialise in high performance ceiling soundproofing solutions. Whether you are dealing with constant footsteps, TV noise from above, or need to meet regulations between flats (Part E), we deliver proven results that restore peace in your home or workspace.

Why noise from above is so intrusive

If you are hearing footsteps, dragging chairs, or conversations from upstairs, the sound could be:

• Impact noise (footsteps, furniture movement)

• Airborne noise (voices, TV, music)

We design systems that target both.

Many companies simply add mass or insulation, but the most effective ceilings combine:

• Decoupling to separate structure vibration

• Dense acoustic insulation

• Heavy acoustic board layers

This breaks sound paths and delivers significantly better results.

Ceiling soundproofing systems for every building type

Timber joist ceilings (found in most houses)

Light wooden joists transfer noise easily. Our method:

• Remove existing ceiling where required to eliminate hollow echo cavities

• Install isolation clips or a fully independent ceiling frame to break vibration transfer

• Fill joists with high density acoustic mineral wool (60 to 100 kg per m³)

• Fit double acoustic boards with optional acoustic membrane between layers

• Minimise loss of head height with slim acoustic components where possible

Concrete ceilings and hollow core slabs

Concrete stops some sound but can still transmit structure vibration. We:

• Inspect for hollow cores and weak flanking points

• Use isolation clips or suspended frames

• Add density, insulation and airtight sealing

• Treat pipe penetrations and edges to reduce flanking

Slimline ceiling systems (minimum height loss)

Perfect for flats or rooms with low ceiling height. We install:

• Ultra thin direct to ceiling acoustic boards

• High mass layers for sound reduction

• Acoustic sealants to prevent sound leaks

These systems are compact but still effective.

Frequently asked questions

How much ceiling height will I lose
A full independent system may require 150 to 200 mm. Slimline systems may reduce height by only 18 to 60 mm. We help you choose based on noise level and room needs.

Can the existing ceiling stay
Sometimes yes, but removing it often increases performance. Hollow voids can act like drums.

How long does installation take
One to three days for a typical ceiling, depending on size and system.

Do you handle lights and electrical fixtures
Yes, we provide acoustic treatment around lights and other fittings and reinstate them after installation.
