After work or on weekends, I want to spend time in silence, get over, to do your favorite thing. But the neighbors may have other plans - to repair, arrange a holiday. Or, the opposite. In order not to spoil the relationship with the tenants of your home, take measures to sound insulation of the room.
1
Noise isolation performs two functions - does not miss the noise from the neighbors and absorbs the sounds emanating from your apartment. Solve the problem simply - make the walls thicker, consolidating the soundproofing material on them. But before this, fulfill preparatory work.
2
An extraneous noise can pass through the outlets. Remove the device along with a plastic sleeve and inspect the opening. Sometimes in jumpers between apartments, one hole is done into two apartments, in the event the second sleeve will be visible. Make the plug from the soundproofer and install in the opening until you stop. Perform the installation of removed equipment.

Similarly, make a hole for the sleeve for electrical wires, which is under the ceiling and hidden by wallpaper. Do not seal openings next to electrical connectors using a mounting foam. It does not have the properties of sound insulation, and also burns well.

Outsided sounds can penetrate through poor insulation of pipelines of pipelines - sewer, water, heating. Survey the places in which the risers enter or leave the inter-storey overlap. The standard design of the compound is a short-diameter short-diameter tube, concreted in the slab of the overlap, through which the riser passes. All visible slits fill in mineral wool. With its absence, we close the slit silicone sealant. If the sleeves are not, remove the cement layer around the pipe to a small depth. Mix the glass whirling or asbestos tissue on the pipe, then all shocktuch. Shake sewer.
5
Check the floor under plinths for cracks. If necessary, do in the floor under the wall of the slot of a depth of 3-5 cm around the perimeter of the room. The resulting gap makes cement-sand or gypsum solution. After frozen the joint, cover the unscrewing silicone sealant. If there is a parquet, fill the slots between the wooden tiles and the walls of the sealant.

The work is complicated if the house is panel. The sound can pass through the slots in the locations of the panels. These places are not visible due to wallpaper. Remove the wallpaper and skewers. The slots thoroughly close the cement or gypsum solution. After drying the place of putty, cover acrylic sealant and paint.

Metal-plastic windows have good soundproof properties, so it is worthwhile to do dear and dirty work to replace them. But wooden products can also be modified. To do this, along the edges of the opening halves, glue the rubber insulation in the form of the letter "D". If the sash is poorly closed, invite the joiner.
8
For noise insulation, put two entrance doors in such a way that space remains between them. Necessarily the presence of a threshold. On the perimeter doors dial "D" a shaped seal. The gaps between the wall and the box take the cement mortar, do not use the mounting foam.
9
Secure the wooden frame to the walls. Put a soundproofing material inside the frame, for example, professional acoustic mineral mats. Rake frames must be the thickness of mineral plates. Top to put plasterboard shields and secure to the frame. The apartment area will decrease slightly, but the apartment will become quiet.
The market shows a large selection of soundproof materials, but the main parameter of the mats is their thickness. Plates with a thickness of less than 40-50 mm will not give the desired effect, so it is not worth buying thin mats.
