@@soundproofingexpert777 yep and my son too. I play with mesh heads for 2 years (our last moving). We have bought a new house and plan to build a room.
Hello, thanks for your content. Can I ask - to seal the outer roof did you just squeeze wool along the eves and up at the apex? Did you do any other sound proofing to the external roof structure? Thank you again! Gavin
Someone else had put some insulation high up in the roof before we started. Other than that the roof isn't insulated above the lower ceiling we have built 👍🏻
Thank you. Can I check that the ceiling construction from inside the room up is: 2 x plasterboard. Wool. Wool stuffed into the existing truss ‘ceiling’ tie. The open space of the garage roof. Tiles. Outside. ? Thanks for this. I’m doing a similar build at my house and this is so helpful. (I thought you might have extra plasterboard on the existing truss) Gavin
I'm learning so much from you guys! Thanks for the content! Question tho... wouldn't it be better to have the fan on the intake side and make the exhaust passive? Seems like having the fan forcing exhaust with passive intake would make the air thin.
@@soundproofingexpert777 I had some minor small wet patches on floor here and there,, so i had an epoxy resin dpm put down and have installed an extractor fan vent and passive vent. Hopefully that will do the trick. Thanks for the advice 🙏
@@soundproofingexpert777 this new smaller space full of stuff after moving over. Plan is to get it all in a gazebo, build a couple of false walls, Rockwool slab the party wall and ceiling, maybe use Knauf roll for the rest, air gap, then 18mm MDF on the outside. Should probably include some kind of damp proof membrane as well somewhere. Trying to do it all on a budget is a nightmare as you know!
Hi, your videos are very helpful for my planned garage conversion. I see you are sticking the rockwool directly to a single skin brick wall. Does this work ok without a VCL?
Really brilliant to see, Would this make the project cheaper as you don’t have to build the external walls/concrete base Ect ? Im currently trying to buy a house and have a studio either in the garden/garage. Paying rent on my teaching/practice space right now and a home studio is the dream!
Is this build just getting 2 layers of insulation? I think for the timber ones there have usually been 3. Do the brick walls negate the need to for the third layer?

Hi. Cracking job!! What wallboard thickness are you using?
Thanks for watching 2 x 12.5mm standard plasterboard!
@ perfect. Thank you
This garage is come along at just the right time. :) My project is almost the same as this garage. Thank you :)
Great to hear! 👍🏻
@@soundproofingexpert777My neighbors think the same thing :)
@@doityourseb8621 are you a drummer!? 🥁

Really great to see a garage conversion on your channel. Enjoying your posts. Keep up the good work! 👍👌
Thankyou for watching! It's a nice change working on a garage studio 👍🏻👌🏻

@@haymanstudios5124 definitely worth a try. Would be easy enough to reverse the physical direction of the fan to test! 🙏🏻
What is your take on having a vapour barrier on the walls and ceiling? Is a barrier needed if you have ventilation?
We normally only use a barrier if there is any evidence of damp. If it's a dry room then should be fine!! 👍🏻

@@Nickiliffe should be fine if it was from the floor. Sometimes the vapour barrier can trap in moisture. The fan system will defo help! Cheers 👍🏻
@@soundproofingexpert777 trapping in the moisture was my main concern about having a VP. I can sleep well tonight 🥁👍
Cor I wish I could afford you guys for soundproofing my small garage workshop! Nice job!
Just had a look at your videos - hope your garage is taking shape!! 👍🏻

Wow, that's amazing progress.!! And I was really looking forward to a Garage install, well done guys!
Thanks Alex! We are back there tomorrow so hopefully another video early next week! 👍🏻
Hi, your videos are very helpful for my planned garage conversion. I see you are sticking the rockwool directly to a single skin brick wall. Does this work ok without a VCL?
Yes, correct. It depends on the garage if it needs a vapour barrier. This one was particularly dry so we didn't feel like it needed it! 👍🏻
@@soundproofingexpert777 Do you have a particular rule of thumb for whether a garage gets a vapour barrier other than it just seeming damp?
another question, what timber are you using? i'dit 89mm cls, or proper 100mm stuff? not sure how well the insulation compresses from 100mm
It's 89mm CLS - the Rockwool has a bit of give in it at 100mm so works ok!

Yes it is definitely cheaper to covert a garage than build from scratch! 👍🏻
Is this build just getting 2 layers of insulation? I think for the timber ones there have usually been 3. Do the brick walls negate the need to for the third layer?
That's right just 2 layers as the brick replaces the outer layer of Rockwool. 👍🏻
