- Not having to remove existing drywall will make your soundproofing project easier. There are a few ways to soundproof over an existing wall, ceiling, and floor. Soundproofing a wall and a ceiling have many similarities and can use the same soundproofing materials. Adding an extra layer of drywall and mass-loaded vinyl can significantly reduce the amount of noise coming through the wall or ceiling. Soundproofing an existing floor is a bit more difficult but still possible to achieve favorable results.

Ok this guy actually knows what he’s talking about
Good Video, I had a professional builder with some some experience soundproofing and he said the same thing
Very informative and insightful video!
i want to fully soundproof my whole apartment so people can't hear what i say when i am inside
I live with my parents and the house is older than me lol my bedroom has fibro walls and ceiling, Is there a way I could safely soundproof my room without the need of disturbing the fibro? Coz your will mentions Gyprock (Drywall) it's what we Aussies call it. My main concern is reducing the bass travel, My bedroom wall is adjacent to the lounge room.
My room is very small (10x11) and I am looking to block outgoing noise and incoming noise, but it doesn't have to be complete sound absorption just around like 60 to 70 percent. What would be an affordable way to do this? (If you need more info I would be happy to supply it.)
Hi, how do you fix mlv to a cinder block wall?
I need to reduce the noise of a garbage truck emptying a dumpster, 30 feet away from my bedroom at 4:30 am. Is this additional drywall method going to fix my issue?
Heya, do you have, or could you make a video about structural noise?
My dad is a dentist but recently retired, it's very common in Europe for medical practitioners to have their practice in a small building attached to and integrated in to their house. My parents have no use for that space now, and the house itself is big, so they want to split it up into apartments.
A massive problem though is structural noise. It's so bad that the noise of footsteps seemingly gets amplified through the structure. I told them they can't rent it out like that, and they agree, but we think it will be hard to combat the structural noise.
Hi bro. I have 200 pieces of useless acoustic polyurethane foam from Temu. Can i use it for insulation behind the dry walls ?
What type of tape to use on the mass loaded vinyle tape?
Just updated the item list in the description to include mass loaded vinyl seam tape. Thanks!
Great video. Maybe the soundproofing worked too well...hard to hear you...or maybe it's just me? Just seems like I had to turn the volume way up? Either way keep coming with the great content.
Oh yeah, the next videos are better. There something with the sound and noticed too late.
Ahh ok. I thought it might be me or my speakers. Keep putting out great content! Thanks!
That foam is useless for anything except maybe somewhat attenuating the highest frequencies of treble. If you want proper acoustic panels they're 4 inches thick. You can also do two inches, with a two-inch air gap between it and the wall. Most people won't go that far in a living space but at least an inch if you want something even slightly helpful. That flimsy foam is just... blah.
Great point! Thanks for watching!
You look like off brand version of Ian from smosh
I was ordered off “wish”
Has anyone told you that you look a lot like Greg Kinnear?
I’ve heard that before. Haha
