How do I soundproof my ceiling? Noise coming through a ceiling is one of the worst soundproofing problem you’re likely to encounter. This solution requires the removal of the existing drywall or plaster ceiling. Doing so will allow you to install R19 fiberglass insulation if there’s none there already. If there happens to be insulation up there currently, consider leaving it and not adding more. You have to take care never to compress the insulation, as compressed insulation can conduct a vibration quite effectively. This SPC Ceiling Solution introduces the important element of decoupling with the use of resilient clips and channel. By physically disconnecting the ceiling drywall from the existing joists, we significantly frustrate the passage of vibration from the joist to the ceiling drywall. We then add two layers of 5/8” drywall and damp the drywall with Green Glue.
