An Overview of our Sound Test Services

A Brief Summary of Our Sound Test Services

APT provides acoustic testing and consultancy to help architects, developers and homeowners achieve the minimum requirements of Part E of the Building Regulations for new build and/or conversion projects. Sound transfer between floor and walls  in dwellings is a common problem and its often down to poor-quality construction – this is often down to the contractors installing party walls and floors being on price work and not taking time and care during the construction process resulting in poor workmanship. We offer a proactive countrywide Sound Testing Service undertaking a wide range of acoustic testing and surveys utilising our highly trained test engineers.

We are accredited to carry out Sound Insulation testing for:

                • Houses and flats in compliance with Part E of the Building Regulations.
                • Houses & Flats in compliance with the Code for Sustainable Homes.
                • All commercial buildings in compliance with BREEAM.
                • Classrooms within schools in compliance with BB93.

We also carry out carryout various noise surveys to comply with the following:

                • Background Noise Surveys for Air Conditioning Plant.
                • New Development Noise Surveys PPG24 for Planning Applications.
                • Noise at Work Noise Assessment
