Recording Studio Floor Treatments

Carpeting with extra thick padding is a traditional recording studio standard. The idea being “the squishier the better”. What this does is it absorbs the sound waves before they hit your sub floor surface, whether it be concrete slab or a raised foundation. With today’s newer materials, we are moving more towards eco-friendly, recycled products that are made specifically for floor sound proofing treatments.

What is great about these new materials is that they are:
1. Very durable
2. Easy to install
3. Fairly cost effective

You can also use either carpet, wood or sheet flooring material directly over these materials. The one thing you should know however is make sure that you seal all joints including where the sound proofing material joins the wall.

For more information on these types of products and their installation please feel free to give us a call at (818)-841-8600 as we are always happy to help.

Sincerely,
