What we do

Architectural acoustics Architectural acoustics services are needed for all types of buildings, including residential new-build or conversion schemes, hospitals, care homes, schools, commercial & industrial premises, and leisure venues. Our deep specialist knowledge enables clients across a wide range of sectors to integrate statutory acoustic requirements into their designs. This translates into schemes that can be delivered on budget, on time, and on the basis of high-grade professional advice. In a field which is highly regulatory, Red Acoustics offers an unsurpassed understanding of the intricate dynamics of compliance which creates cost and operational benefits for our clients.

Environmental acoustics Noise in the environment can have far-reaching and sometimes costly implications for any significant construction project. Housing developers need to ascertain noise levels if they are planning to build near a road, factory or airport. Conversely, a factory owner or airport authority must assess the effects on local communities of an expansion of existing facilities. Red Acoustics has built a solid reputation for providing expert professional advice and achieving tangible, cost–effective solutions, which is underscored by our wide-ranging project experience and diverse client base.

Sound insulation testing Sound insulation is crucially important to the effective control of noise levels in a wide range of regulated sectors and activities. These include the commissioning of schools and hospitals; reducing noise transfer from pubs and clubs; and noise management for residential spaces and hotels. Our full commissioning services enable clients to derive significant advantages from our technical expertise and commercially aware approach to specific projects.

Assessing vibration The need to manage and control vibration can lead to escalating costs and regulatory complications if expert professional advice is not built into projects at an early stage. In some cases anti-vibration bearings, pads, springs or isolators are necessary to reduce or mitigate vibrations from existing or proposed sources. Among sectors affected by vibration are: noise sensitive spaces including residential developments, hotels, schools, offices and hospitals and healthcare spaces due to proximity, to railways, building & construction sites and heating, ventilation & air conditioning (HVAC) plant items.
