Soundproofing Hoboken NJ
Hoboken is dominated by pre war walk ups and converted brownstones on a tight street grid. Thin floors between units and a busy nightlife district produce a very specific pattern of complaints, mostly footsteps from above and street noise at night.
What we are called for in Hoboken
Thin floors in pre war conversions
Many Hoboken units were carved out of larger buildings. The floor between them is often original joists with a single layer of subfloor, which offers almost no impact isolation.
Street and nightlife noise
Around Washington Street and the surrounding blocks, late night noise reaches bedrooms through single glazed sash windows and through gaps at the frame.
Narrow lots and shared walls
Buildings sit wall to wall, so airborne noise and structural vibration both travel between neighbors.
Why Hoboken
Hoboken buildings are usually tight on space and access, so we plan the assembly to give the most reduction for the least lost floor area and ceiling height.

Soundproofing services Hoboken NJ
We work as a soundproofing contractor Hoboken NJ residents and business owners call directly, without a middleman. Most enquiries fall into two groups: residential soundproofing Hoboken homeowners and tenants need for bedrooms and shared walls, and commercial soundproofing Hoboken businesses need for offices, meeting rooms and customer facing spaces.
Apartment soundproofing Hoboken buildings require is usually about footsteps from above and voices through a party wall, and those are two different problems with two different solutions. Where the complaint is echo inside the room rather than sound coming from outside it, acoustic treatment Hoboken spaces need is the correct answer, not soundproofing.
Whichever it turns out to be, the noise reduction Hoboken property owners get depends on treating the path the sound actually takes. As a soundproofing company Hoboken NJ clients can reach the same week, we start with a free assessment and give you a written plan before any work is quoted.
