Reduce Everyday Airborne Noise and Footfall Through Timber Floors

Our Essential Timber Floor Soundproofing System – Carpet is a practical, DIY-friendly solution for improving sound insulation through timber floors, helping reduce everyday airborne noise (talking/TV) as well as impact noise from footfall. Using two layers of 5kg MLV combined with Silent Floor Ultra Underlay, this system provides an effective upgrade with a slim overall build-up. 

To make things easier, our online calculator does all the hard work for you by working out the quantities required for your project, with an additional 5% already allowed for waste, helping ensure you have everything needed to complete the installation.

A Slim, Effective Timber Floor Upgrade for Carpeted Rooms

Our Essential Timber Floor Soundproofing System – Carpet is designed for timber floor constructions where you want a straightforward improvement in both:

  • Airborne noise reduction (voices, general household noise)
  • Impact noise reduction (footfall and general vibration through the floor)

The build-up consists of:

The finished build-up is approximately 16mm overall.

Important Supply Information
