NOISE REDUCTION
Hear the difference.
Play the video to hear the airborne sound difference before and after installing this system. For best results try to match the volume of the unreduced audio to the volume of the noise you’re able to hear.
The noise in the video has been digitally reduced to give you an idea of the sorts of results you could expect. Unfortunately, this is not a perfect science and your personal results could vary due to myriad reasons. However, we have found our customers prefer to hear a decibel reduction rather than read it!
We stand for quality, and we are proud of it.
Our MuteBarrier Plus system is designed for achieving good reductions in airborne sound through a wooden floor while maintaining minimal additional height to the floor build-up.
Airborne sound can come from people talking, televisions, music and much more.
- Wooden Floor Soundproofing
- Good reduction in Airborne Sound
- Additional floor build up only 9mm
- Easy to install
- Can be loose laid
- Can accept a variety of floor finishes
Soundproofing Floor Joists
Soundproofing floor joists is a simple and effective way to reduce impact sound. In the MuteBarrier system, we achieve this with the Isolation Strip P8. The P8 isolation strip is designed specifically for soundproofing floor joists, they have a self-adhesive backing to make for easy installation and a pimpled design so they have a lower contact area and can act like suspension absorbing the impact before it travels through the joists as noise vibrations.
How to install floor soundproofing
Fully installed the system would consist of installing around 100mm of 60kg/m³ acoustic wool between the floor joists, this will help to reduce cavity resonance and absorb some of the sound passing through. Tecsound S100 would then be laid on top of the subfloor providing excellent vibration-dampening characteristics and additional mass, ideal for airborne sound reduction.
On top of this, the MuteBarrier 10kg/m² is applied as the top layer, this will add mass and act as a hard-wearing final layer. The Perimeter Flanking Band and Acoustic Sealant should be used to separate and seal any hard surfaces from the walls. Any gaps, cracks or holes should also be sealed up to reduce flanking transmission.
This system is ideally installed with acoustic mineral wool within the joist cavity to achieve up to the maximum performance possible. The system can also be installed just as an overlay where it is not possible to lift some of the existing subfloor but performance will be reduced.

Our team are always a phone call away ready to offer advice and support. Our systems can be installed by competent DIYers but if you would like to work with an installer we have relationships with installers up and down the UK that we can put you in touch with.
MuteBarrier Premium Calculator
Use our handy calculator to see what soundproofing products your project will require. Don’t forget to unfold the ‘more info’ tab below to learn how to use this calculator.
Once you have your calculator results you can add all the products to your basket using the button below. You will have to manually input the results from the calculator. We know this is not ideal and we are looking into developing a solution for this.
Floor Joist Center
The floor joist centre refers to the centre point between each joist.
- If you have multiple adjacent surfaces or partitions to soundproof input them individually. Not as a total m2 input as this will affect the results.
- If you have windows, fireplaces or other fixed structures we recommend booking a call with us before purchasing.
