Tips To Cancel Noise At Your Home

Whether you are living in your rural rest house or at your high-end community in Davao City, one thing is for sure - your whole family is at home right now.

For someone working at home to make a living, noise is the number one problem.

With your kids playing loud music in their bedrooms and watching Netflix flicks in full blast speakers, along with your husband roaring his favorite 80s rock track on the radio, what can you do to cancel these unwanted sounds?

Well Alson Properties, a leading real estate property developer in Davao City, has prepared this list of tips for you to apply at home.



Seal The Gaps


Reduce the noise coming into your room by soundproofing your home office’s door. How? First, check all the gaps in your door (if light can pass through it, the sound could too.) After that, add a door sweep underneath. Follow that up with sealing the top and sides of the door with foam weatherstripping.

Through gap sealing, you will not only cancel the noise but also protect yourself from dust, bugs, and drafts.

Bookcase Galore

For homes with thin walls (or in most cases, a loud room next door), adding a bookcase behind your wall will negate the noise coming from the other room. Why? Adding a solid material, such as a bookshelf or a cabinet) next to the room partition allows materials and objects to resist vibrations which reduce the transmission of sound waves.

Curtains, curtains, curtains



Layering helps with sound wave absorption. Thus, adding a layer of thick curtains on your doors and windows will help reduce the transmission of sound towards your workplace at home. Also, if your work requires some privacy, the curtains also help absorb the sound that may leak out of your room. A win-win situation, am I right?
