Can I soundproof my ceiling to block out noise from my upstairs neighbor?

Yes—you can significantly reduce noise from your upstairs neighbor, especially footsteps and impact sounds like objects falling. While achieving 100% soundproofing without altering the structure is difficult, suitable sound-absorbing materials can significantly improve comfort and quietness.

🎧 How to Effectively Soundproof Your Ceiling

Here are the most effective methods:

✔ 1. Add Sound-Absorbing Panels

High-density sound-absorbing panels help absorb reflected noise, reducing the sound you hear.

Our PET sound-absorbing panels and wood strip wall/ceiling panels combine sound absorption with aesthetic appeal.

✔ 2. Create a Freestanding Ceiling

Installing a suspended or floating ceiling helps block impact sounds.

Even better when used with soundproofing materials.

✔ 3. Increase Mass

Using high-density boards or layers of high-density materials helps block airborne noise.

✔ 4. Seal Gaps

Even the smallest gaps can allow sound to pass through. Proper sealing can improve overall performance.v
