Soundproofed Recording Studio Build-Out
A working recording space built inside an existing suite: sound-rated wall assemblies, an acoustic ceiling grid, new plank flooring and a clean paint finish.
What the job had to solve
A room used for recording has to hold sound in and keep the building out. Standard partitions and a bare ceiling let HVAC noise, footfall from the next suite and street noise straight through, and every seam and penetration in the assembly is a path for it.
Work performed
- Sound-rated wall assemblies with sealed perimeters and penetrations
- Metal-stud framing for new partitions
- Drywall hang, tape and finish, sanded flat for paint
- Suspended acoustic ceiling grid and tile
- Luxury vinyl plank flooring with vinyl cove base
- Full prime and finish paint
- Door and hardware set for the room opening
Trades involved
How the work ran
- 1Walk the space and confirm what the room needs to do, then agree the wall and ceiling assemblies that get it there.
- 2Frame the partitions and rough in the openings.
- 3Build the sound-rated assemblies, sealing perimeters, outlets and every other penetration rather than leaving them to the finish trades.
- 4Hang, tape and finish the drywall, then set the ceiling grid.
- 5Lay flooring and base, paint, and hang the door.
The result
A finished, usable studio room: quiet, flat walls ready for treatment, an acoustic ceiling, and flooring and paint that are done, not "close enough".
