Note: Every 10 decibels(dB) reduction in noise level is roughly perceived as a halving of the perceived loudness. So, for instance, if you have a sound that measures 70dB and it decreases to 60dB, it would sound about half as loud to the human ear. Decibels explained.
When fitting the Noisestop Silent Panel, ensure the plasterboard side faces into the room and the acoustic membrane sits against the wall.
Before installation, check that the wall surface is flat and secure. Complete any remedial work as needed. Remove skirting boards and coving and extend electrical outlets where required. Wall linings such as wallpaper can remain in place.
- Start with the first row of panels, using 2–3mm packers to support the boards and isolate them from the floor.
- Fix each panel using nine hammer fixings, evenly spaced. The internal layers of the panel help absorb any potential sound transfer through fixings.
- Apply acoustic sealant between each panel during installation.
- Leave a 2–3mm gap around the wall perimeter to reduce flanking noise. Once all panels are fitted, fill the perimeter gap with acoustic sealant.
- Panels can be cut using a hand saw or circular saw.
- Finish the surface with skim plaster or tape and fill over the tapered edges.
- Reinstall skirting boards, coving, and any extended outlets.
- For electrical outlets, fit acoustic putty pads inside recessed back boxes to maintain sound insulation.
Finishing soundproof panels
- Taping and jointing -Apply joint tape (paper or mesh) over all joints. Use jointing compound to fill and feather out over the tape.
- Skim Plastering – Apply a thin coat of finish plaster (usually 2–3 mm thick) over the entire plasterboard surface.
- Plasterboard Direct Decoration (No Skim) – Tape and joint as usual. Sand and apply a sealer or mist coat. Paint or wallpaper directly onto the plasterboard.
This step-by-step process ensures an effective, high-performance acoustic installation with minimal disruption.

Soundproof panels FAQS
Soundproof panels are specialised acoustic panels designed to reduce sound transmission between spaces. They are typically made of dense, sound-absorbing materials such as soundproof plasterboard, mass-loaded vinyl and acoustic foams, which help to block and absorb sound waves.
No. Soundproof panels significantly reduce sound transmission, but achieving higher levels of soundproofing requires combining various methods and materials (such as sound isolation clips, resilient channels and acoustic insulation). See our Soundproofing Systems for more information when higher levels of sound insulation are required.
Yes, many soundproof panels are designed for easy DIY installation. They are typically installed with screws or adhesives depending on the type of panel and the surface they are being applied. Products frequently used with soundproof panels include the following.
- Acoustic sealants – seal the edges and the perimeter of the wall to keep the area airtight.
- Hammer fixings – Secure sound panels to most solid walls using a hammer fixing. Other fixings, such as drywall screws, are used for different backgrounds, such as stud work or metal furring channels.
Most soundproof panels have an outer face of plasterboard, which allows for finishing, such as a plaster skim like a standard plasterboard. Our soundproofing boards have a tapered edge that enables them to be taped and filled as an alternative to plastering. Decorating straight onto the panel’s surface with paint or wallpaper is possible.
Once the soundproofing has been installed, the electrical outlets can be reinstated. We recommend using an acoustic putty pad inside the electrical back box to ensure acoustic integrity.
You can attach things such as shelves and mirrors over soundproof panels. If the wall behind the panel is a solid wall, use a suitable fixing that connects to the wall behind the panel; if it’s a stud wall, use a suitable stud wall plug.
