The Brief

Situated close to the A1(M), the customer’s home was affected by road noise, impacting several rooms across the property.

Following a full survey and assessment, two façades of the property were identified as having full scheme eligibility due to their proximity to the road. The required works needed to provide effective noise reduction while maintaining appropriate ventilation and compliance with Building Regulations.

Noise Insulation for a Home in Newcastle upon Tyne

The Outcome

The completed works introduced noise reduction measures across several rooms and two façades of the property, helping to create a noticeably quieter living environment.

Following installation, the customer rated the improvement in noise levels from 2 out of 10 before the works to 10 out of 10 after completion.

The customer was also particularly pleased with the quality of the installation and the care shown by the teams working in their home, from the initial scaffolding through to the final fitting.
