Soundproofing Astoria
Astoria is brick and frame two and three family houses with newer mid-rise buildings mixed in, the N and W running on elevated structure above 31st Street, and LaGuardia approach traffic overhead.
What we are called for in Astoria
Elevated N and W on 31st Street
The elevated structure runs between buildings at upper floor level. Trains are loud at that range and the steel structure radiates as well, so both the window and the facing wall may be involved.
Two and three family floors
The standard Astoria house has one unit above another on original joists. Footsteps from above are the most common job we are called for in the neighbourhood.
Aircraft noise
Much of Astoria sits under the LaGuardia approach, which produces repeated overflight events. Only the facade, glazing and roof, can address that.
Working in Astoria buildings
Astoria work is mostly in privately owned two and three family houses, so the owner decides and we can usually start within days. We stage the work floor by floor so tenants stay in place and the staircase remains usable.

Soundproofing services in Astoria
As a soundproofing contractor Astoria Queens owners call directly, the two jobs we are asked for most are the ceiling under an upstairs unit and a window facing the elevated line. Residential soundproofing Astoria houses need is that ceiling assembly, and apartment soundproofing Astoria tenants ask about is the same work seen from the lower unit.
Commercial soundproofing Astoria businesses need is concentrated along Steinway Street and Broadway, where restaurants and retail sit under apartments. Where a room sounds hard rather than noisy, acoustic treatment Astoria spaces need is the correct answer and no isolation work is justified.
The noise reduction Astoria residents get against aircraft comes from the facade alone, and we are clear about what that achieves before quoting. As a soundproofing company Astoria owners can usually see on site within days, the assessment costs nothing.
