School and Educational Soundproofing

DDS Acoustical Specialties provides and installs architectural acoustical products that mitigate noise and reduces noise pollution in schools, colleges/universities, and other learning environments.  Studies have shown that a lower reverberation time and a well-designed acoustic environment helps not only the students learn but also the teachers teach.  School and educational soundproofing is an important aspect of any learning facility.

Schools are built for safety and cleanliness. While the hard surfaces in areas like hallways, classrooms, gymnasiums, auditoriums, offices, music rooms, and cafeterias help achieve those objectives they are highly reflective and cause sound waves to reverberate increasing noise levels. As the background noise builds, the rooms in the school become less functional, and the learning environment becomes compromised.  

The need for a soundproof classroom 

Without proper sound insulation, music lessons next to a language class can ruin comprehension. Heavy rain on a flat roof can make a tutorial reverberate like a drum. As more schools make use of online learning improper acoustics at the teaching location can result in speech intelligibility. 

Effective, attractive, and multi-purpose school and educational soundproofing 

Creating an acoustic environment for students is a worthwhile investment that not only improves learning but can also elevate the aesthetic of a space. Our fabric wrapped acoustical wall panels for example, come in custom shapes, sizes and colors. Panels also have the option to be tackable for classrooms and spaces where you want to display art, signage, or other material.

Amazing products from an amazing company! We have used them now twice at our church and just added one more room for them to do. I had high expectations when they came in initially. They did not disappoint. Everyone immediately noticed the sound quality improvement in the rooms. This product helps us, as a local church, offer a much more comfortable environment for everyone coming into our church. Thank you again everyone at DDS.

DDS did an amazing job sound proofing some difficult areas. They were great to work with and I would highly recommend them! Just to add...we had DDS come back and sound proof other areas because we were so pleased with their work. Highly recommend!

We are so thankful for the installation that DDS Acoustical Specialities did for a preschool classroom. The panels are making a remarkable difference in the sound in the room! The children and staff are able to concentrate more in the echo-free space. The company was excellent from start to finish! Fair estimate, quick turnaround, prompt, professional and high quality work! DDS was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend you call them to help with sound issues! They can improve your sound to make a difference!

From the very start DDS was a winner in my book. Dave answered the phone, came right out to assess our needs and we had a quote in no time. Their crew was informative, professional and kept their space tight and clean. And the product.... what a difference it has made in our restaurant. Even during the phases we could hear a difference from where the panels were installed and where they were not yet done. I would HIGHLY recommend them!

We recently worked with DDS Acoustical Specialties on an acoustic solution for a workstation area. We went with a combination of pinnable panels, ceiling panels, wall panels, and art panels, which have exceeded our expectations for the space.

My church engaged DDS Acoustical Specialties to reduce the noise level in our parish hall. The hard surfaces on the floor, walls, and ceiling made it difficult to converse when the room was full. We are very pleased with both the appearance of the sound absorbing foam panels which DDSAS installed on the ceiling and also with the reduction in the noise level. Many of our members have commented favorably on the improvement. I would recommend this company without reservation.

Great experience. We had a very severe sound reverberation issue in our town hall meeting room and Tyler and his team solved it quickly and affordably. Town meetings will never be filled with complaints (about the inability to hear) ever again. I highly recommend this company. And if you are ever in the Town of Sharon, Connecticut on a weekday, pop in, go to the second floor and hear for yourself

I had a great experience with DDS Acoustical Specialties from start to finish. I have a small physical therapy practice in Burlington, VT. and needed soundproofiing for my office. Mary was prompt and very knowledgable about how I could be helped on the phone and throughout the process. Steve made the long drive to provide and estimate for the work, and was extremely efficient, professional and pleasant to work with during the installation. They soundproofed the doors and ceiling tiles and it's made a tremendous difference.The entire process took about a month from start to finish. I now feel confident that my space is private and secure for my clients. I would highly recommend their services!

Great company to work with. Reasonable price for an acoustical solution in my 2900 sqf restaurant space. The noise has reduced considerably and people can hear each other even when the restaurant is fully booked. Highly recommended.
