    Nice job and glad to see this video pop up in my suggested videos! Curious to hear the before and after decibels if you have them. 👍🏼

      Thanks Inspiring Builds, appreciate it. Unfortunately I don’t have access to the adjacent unit to do any kind of db testing. But what I can say is, it is definitely quieter than before.

    I learned a few things here. I never knew what sound proof materials were. Looks quite simple to install too. like 12

      Thanks, turns out there are many ways to soundproof a space, Using Sonopan panels like these are fairly easy to install however to increase the effectiveness you can add a resilient sound bar prior to drywall. This then creates an air space between the sound board and the drywall, which will help even more. Thanks for visiting my friend.

    Live in a 110 year old rowhouse and this is perfect. Wondered if I could do it without tearing down the existing wall. Thank you for this video

      Your very welcome. This Sonopan paneling worked great to really quiet down the noise coming from the neighbours however adding sound bar to the sonopan prior to drywall would increase the effectiveness even more.
      Check out our latest video where we added the sound bar.

    Can u do a noise test ? is it good to do it like that or insert insulation between the wall thx

      This project was for a clients home, so I won’t be able to do a noise test. This was what they contracted us to do. Last time I spoke with them they said they were very happy with the results. If it were my own place I would have likely filled the wall cavities first.

    Why aren't there some test so we can hear the difference?

    Why half inch drywall? Wouldn’t 5/8 be way better?

    • @DIYBuilt

      The original layer we added the sonopan to was 5/8” type x

    Nothing worse than hearing a neighbor's noise - looks like a great solution - cheers.

      It worked really well and the cost is only about a dollar per sqft
