Acoustic ceilings in Greater Manchester

An acoustic ceiling uses high-absorption tiles, and sometimes denser backing, to cut echo inside a room and stop speech travelling over partitions into the next one.

Retail units around Oldham usually need a fast turnaround, so we can work overnight in centres and on high streets to keep disruption to trading low.

Questions people ask
Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?
Yes. We take on acoustic ceilings across Greater Manchester, including Manchester, Salford, Stockport, Bolton, Wigan and Oldham, and nearby areas such as Cheshire, Merseyside and Lancashire.
Can you work around our shop's opening hours in Oldham?
Yes. We can fit overnight or before opening, and phase the work so the shop floor keeps trading.
What is the difference between NRC and αw?
Both describe sound absorption. NRC is an American average; αw is the European rating that gives the A–E class used on UK datasheets. Compare tiles using the same measure.
Will acoustic tiles stop noise from the office next door?
Only if they are chosen for attenuation as well as absorption. Many high-absorption tiles are light and let sound through. If privacy between rooms is the issue we look at denser tiles or a void barrier above the partition line.
