Building acoustics
Disturbing noises and inadequate sound insulation significantly reduce the liveability of properties. With our professional building acoustics assessment, we help you accurately identify the problems and ensure that your building meets the relevant regulations – whether it concerns new construction, renovation, or neighbour disputes.
- What measurements can we help with?
- Airborne sound insulation measurement: Assessment of the sound insulation performance of walls, ceilings, doors, windows, and facades (e.g. transmitted speech or road traffic noise).
- Impact sound insulation measurement: Checking the impact sound insulation of floors and floor coverings (e.g. footsteps from upstairs neighbours, furniture dragging).
- Building services noise assessment: Measurement of noise levels generated by air conditioning units, heat pumps, ventilation systems, lifts, and boilers in residential and work spaces.
- Acoustic camera investigations: to identify problem areas
- Why is it worth having the assessment carried out?
- Quality assurance for builders and contractors: Confirms compliance with the acoustic limit values required for the occupancy permit.
- Legal certainty: Prevents and resolves neighbour disputes and property protection proceedings.
- Informed renovation: Before retrofitting sound insulation in existing buildings, it precisely identifies the weak points, avoiding unnecessary and costly "blind" interventions.
