City Soundproofing serves North York homeowners, condo owners and businesses with wall, ceiling and floor soundproofing designed around the building rather than a standard kit. From high-rise suites along Yonge Street to detached homes in Willowdale and Bayview Village, we begin by identifying how noise is travelling and then specify the construction that deals with it.
In tower condos the complaints are usually footsteps from above and voices through demising walls. Ceiling and wall upgrades are done from inside your suite, subject to your corporation's approval and working-hour rules.
Condo soundproofing →Roads and rail produce low-frequency noise that passes through windows and exterior walls. We assess the building envelope before recommending anything, because adding mass in the wrong place will not help.
Wall soundproofing →Custom homes in the area often include basement theatres and music rooms. These need a planned room-within-a-room or equivalent assembly so sound stays in the room and out of the bedrooms above.
Home theatre soundproofing →Many North York houses have separate living space below. Where family members or tenants live in the basement, the ceiling is the key assembly, and it has to handle both speech and footsteps.
Basement soundproofing →North York combines some of Toronto's densest condominium living, around Yonge and Sheppard and Yonge and Finch, with quiet low-rise streets where older bungalows are being rebuilt as large custom homes. Subway lines, the 401 and Allen Road add steady background noise, and parts of the district lie under Pearson flight paths at times. Dense living means shared walls, floors and ceilings; large new homes mean media rooms, home offices and basements that people want to keep private.
Many North York condo corporations have specific rules about flooring, construction noise and contractor documentation. Older semi-detached and detached homes may have plaster walls and uninsulated cavities, and what is inside the wall changes the solution, which is why we assess the building before quoting.

Work is scheduled within your building's permitted hours, and we use methods that keep noise and dust manageable. Larger jobs such as a full ceiling take longer, so we agree the schedule and any notice to the corporation before starting.
It can. Low-frequency traffic noise passes through windows and exterior walls differently from voices, so the construction that works for a shared wall may not suit an outside wall. We assess where the noise enters before specifying anything.
Yes. A sealed, decoupled room with proper mass can keep sound in the theatre and out of the rooms above. Ceiling height, ductwork and the existing slab all affect what is possible, so we review the space before designing it.
