My father started a residential renovation company in New Jersey 35 years ago. Over the years, almost every house he entered was inadequately insulated. He evaluated the living space and provided a solution to correct the problem.
"I DO NOT RECOMMEND! He was late to my appointment and very unprofessional upon arrival. He gave me an official estimate and when it was time to perform the work he backed out and told me he could not do it for the price quoted."

Jersey State provides insulations such as: closed/open cell insulation, blown in insulation, sound and firestop insulation. We also retrofit houses for green and comfort energy. Family owned and operated. Business experience 15 years plus
"I can’t say enough nice things about Jersey State Insulation. Sebastian and his crew are absolutely amazing. They work very hard and are very conscientious of your home. When they did the insulation on my home they were very careful when moving things around and cleaning up after the job was done. Sebastian is very friendly and made every effort to explain everything and make sure I was happy with the work being done. I met with other insulation companies, but none seemed nearly as competent as Jersey State. The others wanted to charge me a lot more for something I didnt think I needed. The others though my problem was only the attic. Sebastian inspected the attic and said there was nothing it needed. Other contractors didn’t even want to attempt blow-in insulation, but Sebastian and his crew did it and the result is fantastic"

Using recycled egg cartons to soundproof a room is ineffective because these thin, porous materials fail to block sound waves. High-quality sound-dampening foam panels absorb sound energy completely and have a flat backing for secure attachment. This method guarantees enhanced noise reduction and an improved aesthetic, making it the reliable choice for soundproofing.
Soundproofing performed during new construction is more cost-effective than retrofitting an existing room. Incorporating soundproofing while building eliminates the need for extensive retrofits later, reducing labor and material expenses. New construction projects invest $15 per square foot, while retrofitting requires $30 per square foot. This proactive approach significantly enhances acoustic performance and value.
The best soundproofing approach is determined by the noise severity, room function, and the quality of materials used. For minor ambient noise, installing soundproof curtains may suffice. However, spaces exposed to heavy traffic or industrial sounds require insulation, specialized drywall, and superior window installations. Professional consultation ensures that every element meets the room’s acoustic requirements.
Sound Transmission Class (STC) quantifies a material's ability to block sound; higher STC ratings indicate superior soundproofing performance, ensuring less noise passes between spaces. This rating is essential when selecting windows, doors, or wall materials to meet specific acoustic performance standards.
While completely soundproofing a room is technically possible, it is not cost-effective due to extensive material and labor requirements. Targeting a noise reduction between 25% and 50% delivers significant acoustic improvement without exorbitant costs. An investment between $1,000 and $2,000 achieves outstanding results. Therefore, attaining complete silence is impractical for most residential projects.
