Noise control in condos and apartment buildings is the #1 cause of consumer litigation in the building industry – right up there with mold according to Truitt & White Buyer John Niemeier.
“It’s time to know about this. If you don’t, it can come back to haunt you in an unpleasant way,” says John.
Where sound is an issue, QuietRock® products from Quiet Solution offer exceptional options when building high STC walls. This product installs like regular drywall, reduces noise 70 to 97 percent, and if desired, can be installed over existing drywall.
QuietRock® is a multi-layer, engineered drywall panel that’s made of gypsum and viscoelastic sound-absorbing polymers. Overall, it provides higher performance, greater reliability and lower total cost compared to other methods of sound reduction such as resilient channels, sound clips, soundboard and mass loaded vinyl. It’s also easy to install.
Truitt & White now exclusively offers QuietRock noise reduction products. “QuietRock and Supress are the only two brands in this niche category. We’ve carried both at different times, but QuietRock is really the big kid on the block. Quiet Solution has a vast range of products and component systems that work together from wood products for floors, ceilings and walls, to drywall, sealants and more. The wide selection makes it the preferred line for us to carry,” says John.
QuietRock® soundproof drywall is ideal for:
- Bedrooms
- Music rooms
- Media rooms
- Basements
- Recording studios
- Multi-family structures
Fully lab- and field-tested, QuietRock® products are approved by Underwriters Laboratory (UL). They are fire-rated, shear-rated and provide sound transmission class (STC) ratings from 49 to 80.
