Resistance to the passage of sound
Sound testing is a key requirement for demonstrating compliance with Building Regulations Part E, which sets minimum standards for sound insulation between residential units. Our acoustic testing service assesses airborne and impact noise levels to ensure that separating walls and floors meet the required performance criteria. This helps to create quieter, more comfortable living environments in flats, houses, and conversions.
We carry out on-site tests using calibrated equipment and follow procedures in line with UKAS accredited methods and Approved Document E guidance. Our experienced technicians provide prompt, reliable results and issue detailed reports suitable for building control submission. Where necessary, we also offer advice on remedial actions to help you achieve a pass. Whether for new builds or refurbishments, our sound testing service ensures compliance and supports high standards in acoustic performance.
