To take the mystery out of soundproofing materials – consult a professional

From band saws to band practice, your garage may need sound proofing.  When searching for sound proofing advice for soundproofing garages, find a professional who:
• Will take the time to explain your sound proofing options
• Has previous experience soundproofing garages
• Will offer you the best sound proofing solutions, not just the most expensive
• Will make sure you understand how frequency affects the success of sound proofing

**Low frequencies are the hardest to block out when soundproofing garages**
                                            …HIGH - cymbals, soprano voices, flute
                                            …MIDDLE - guitar, alto sax
                                            …LOW - bass guitar, lower notes on a keyboard, drums

Soundproofing garages – it’s all in the acoustics

Acoustics is an extremely complicated science but a basic understanding of the properties of sound will help you choose the soundproofing materials that will work best in your garage. 

Sound travels in waves.  Longer waves are fast and produce lower tones while short waves travel more slowly and produce a higher tone.  Because of these different characteristics, soundproofing materials all block sound with different rates of success.  There are three basic methods for soundproofing garages.
• Damping or absorbing sound waves with soundproofing materials such as acoustic blankets or panels
• Blocking sound behind heavy, thick walls
• Using insulation between walls to further block sound

Don’t guess – ASK QUESTIONS

Soundproofing garages can be difficult to accomplish correctly without a professional’s help.  In order to get the best performance out of an acoustic blanket for example, ask a professional these important questions:

• Does soundproofing garages have to be an expensive process?
• Are acoustic blankets the best sound proofing method? Do they absorb or insulate or both?
• Are soundproofing materials for garages removable or permanent?
• If I spend more money on sound proofing, will my garage be more sound proof?
• Are there quality acoustic blankets that will fit my budget?
