How to Soundproof Your Ceilings in Brighton, Hove & Worthing

By West Sussex Soundproofing Ltd – Over 20 Years of Soundproofing Experience in Sussex

If you’re constantly hearing footsteps, music, or chatter from above, you’re not alone. Ceiling noise is one of the most common problems for homeowners and flat owners in Brighton, Hove, Worthing, and throughout Sussex. Luckily, there are reliable ways to reduce and even eliminate unwanted sound.

At West Sussex Soundproofing Ltd, we specialise in professional ceiling soundproofing installations designed to stop both impact and airborne noise effectively.


1. Identify the Type of Noise

Understanding whether your problem is impact noise (footsteps, movement) or airborne noise (music, TV, voices) helps determine the right solution. Our team at West Sussex Soundproofing Ltd provides on-site assessments across Brighton, Hove, and Worthing to find the most efficient approach for your home.


2. Install Acoustic Insulation Between Joists

Filling the ceiling void with high-density acoustic insulation helps absorb airborne sound before it travels through the structure. The denser the insulation, the greater the reduction in sound transfer.


3. Add a Resilient Bar or Acoustic Clip System

Installing a resilient bar system or acoustic clips creates separation between the ceiling joists and plasterboard, dramatically reducing vibration transfer. This is one of the most effective steps for stopping impact noise.


4. Double Up with Acoustic Plasterboard

Once the resilient system is fitted, we apply two layers of acoustic plasterboard, sealed with acoustic mastic. This adds the essential mass needed to block airborne sound.


5. Seal All Gaps and Edges

Tiny gaps can let big amounts of sound through. Sealing all perimeter joints, downlight holes, and gaps with acoustic sealant ensures a completely airtight finish.


6. Combine with Floor Soundproofing (Optional)

If you can access the floor above, consider adding impact-resistant underlays or floating floors to further improve sound insulation between floors.
