Soundproofing a Ceiling
Soundproofing a ceiling reduces the noise that enters the space from any room above, whether it’s impact or airborne noise.
Impact noise is the result of people walking in the room above. Footfall causes vibrations in the floor. These vibrations pass through the ceiling of the room below.
Airborne noise is the sound from the room above, whether it’s people talking, a loud TV or thumping music.
Types of Ceilings to Soundproof
Learn about the best ceiling soundproofing methods for drywall and suspended ceilings.
Drywall Ceiling Soundproofing
By suspending a new drywall ceiling from a vibration isolation system, like isoTRAX ™ Soundproofing System, impact and airborne noise are greatly reduced.
isoTRAX ™ Soundproofing System works by “floating” the ceiling over vibration isolators. With no hardware making direct contact with the ceiling, the new drywall only comes in contact with an isolating foam cushion. Sound energy has no path to travel along, stopping its transmission.
Suspended Ceiling Soundproofing
The most effective method for soundproofing a suspended ceiling is to remove the current ceiling and install a drywall ceiling with our isoTRAX™ Soundproofing System.
isoTRAX™ Soundproofing System works by “floating” the ceiling over vibration isolators. No hardware makes direct contact with the ceiling. The new drywall only comes in contact with an isolating foam cushion. Sound energy is stopped because it has no path to travel along.
Another ceiling soundproofing solution is replacing ceiling tiles with acoustical tiles. Acoustical tiles reduce airborne noise and improve the sound quality within a room by absorbing sound waves and eliminating echoes.

I have emailed a lot of different manufactures and I have to say your customer service is head and shoulders above all of them. I emailed your company at about 9pm my time and when I woke up the next morning you had already answered my question and then the follow up was a few hours later. I am impressed. Thanks a lot for the quick turn around!
