Introduction

Here are 5 sound proofing tips you need to know. Some of these hacks may seem strange, but they really work!

Sound Proof with Duct Tape

Duct tape is one of the most versatile inventions of all time. It can be used for everything from building furniture, to repairing cars and even home improvement projects.

Duct tape is a great soundproofing material because it’s cheap, easy to use and comes in different thicknesses depending on how much noise you want to block out.

When sealing gaps in your room with duct tape:

• Seal gaps between doors and their frames by taping them closed
• Tape windows shut or use double-sided tape if you’re not comfortable with using duct tape directly onto glass panes (this will work just as well but without leaving residue on your window)
• Tape around lights or electrical cords coming out of walls – this will help prevent sound waves from escaping through these spaces too!

Plants and Thick Curtains Help Sound Proofing

Plants and curtains can be used to help improve your home’s soundproofing. Plants absorb sound, so if you want to stop noise from traveling through a wall or ceiling, place a plant in front of the wall.

If you want even more advanced soundproofing, place plants on both sides of an open door or window to provide double protection against unwanted sounds leaking into your house.

Curtains are another easy way to stop noise from entering your home—but not all curtains are created equal! Thick curtains will absorb more noise than thin ones, so try using thick white cotton curtains for maximum absorption power (you’ll find these at most hardware stores).

Acoustic Wall Panels/Acoustic Foam

Acoustic wall panels are also a great way to create a soundproof room, and they’re easy to install. They come in a variety of colors, so you can match your decor or choose something that will complement the rest of your home.

Acoustic foam is another great material to use if you want to soundproof your room. It’s lightweight, easy to cut and doesn’t cost much money! You can buy rolls of it at hardware stores or online if you prefer buying it online because it might be cheaper there than in person (although both options will work just as well).

They key thing about acoustic foam is that you need some sort of adhesive backing before sticking them onto walls or ceilings after measuring how much space they occupy in terms of square footage per sheet – otherwise they won’t stay put long term due their weightlessness which makes them fall off surfaces easily over time even though glue isn’t needed initially!

Carpet Floors or Natural Rugs

Rugs are the second best option for soundproofing a room. They do a good job at absorbing sound and they are easier on the budget than carpet.

There are many types of rugs to choose from: wool rugs, cotton rugs, silk rugs, synthetic rugs, natural fiber carpets and more. The thing that makes them so great is that they absorb the sound waves from your footsteps or any other sounds in your home. The downside is that they can be expensive if you want an expensive looking rug or if you have high traffic areas in your home where people walk around often like bedrooms or living rooms.

Carpets are usually heavier than most other types of flooring because they need something underneath them (like hardwood floors) so they don’t slide around too much when someone walks on them too heavily which could cause damage over time due to constant pressure being applied onto those delicate fibers underneath those shaggy tufts of fibers that make up this wonderful material known as carpeting!

Egg Cartons Use for Sound Proofing

Egg cartons are a cheap and easy way to soundproof your room. They’re made of cardboard, which is flexible and easy to cut.

If you’re already saving your egg cartons, then you can use them as noise barriers in your home or office by cutting out holes for windows and doors in the cartons and placing them over any openings (like vents) that allow sound to travel through the walls. The egg carton foam also works well as an effective light blocker if you need to block light coming through windows but don’t want to spend money on blackout curtains or shades.

These sound proofing tips are easy to do and will keep the noise down.

You can use any of these soundproofing tips in your home, office, car and even in the bathroom!

• Soundproof your walls with a soundproof paint. Use a special soundproofing spray to add extra sound proofing to your walls or door frames.
• Soundproof your windows by adding some insulation between the window pane and frame and by adding a heavy curtain that will block out noise from outside when it is closed.
• You can also buy some acoustic tiles for rooms where there are high amounts of traffic noise like hallways or staircases so that they absorb more sound before it reaches the ears of those inside the room below them.
• Add carpet on top of hard floors because it’s softer than tile and wood but still works wonders at absorbing vibrations produced by footsteps which means less echo when someone walks down stairs or across hard floors such as concrete ones (like in basements). Carpet also absorbs dirt better than tiled spaces do so you won’t have as much dust floating around either!
