Build the drywall around the specified sound-control assembly

Sound can travel between rooms when the wall build-up does not match the project requirement. Board type alone does not describe the whole assembly; framing, adjacent spaces, and how the room is used also affect the drywall work.

Solis installs drywall as part of the specified wall build-up, with assembly details and room use guiding the work. Following the plans ties board installation to the design that calls for sound control and the surrounding wall construction.

  • Drywall installed to the specified wall build-up.
  • Assembly details carried through the board installation.

Here’s how we get it handled

  1. Text us photos or call

    A close-up, a wider view and your city give us a useful starting point. You can also call and talk through the work.

  2. Agree the scope and schedule

    We review the work with you, arrange a site visit where needed and put the agreed scope and finish in your estimate.

  3. Get the space finished

    Solis completes the agreed work and reviews the finish with you. Include interior painting in the scope for a complete drywall-and-paint handoff.

Acoustic drywall in Centralia homes

Half of Centralia's homes were built before 1977 and half after. New walls in an existing home are finished to meet what is already there, so the home's age shapes the finish plan. U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020–2024, median year structure built

Start with the sound-control assembly

Sound control comes from the whole assembly: framing, gypsum layers, insulation, resilient channel or clips, perimeter sealant, and the way joints and penetrations are handled. We work from the assembly tag and the approved detail, so the wall we build is the one that was designed.

Gypsum Association GA-600 fire-resistance and sound-control designs

Coordinate penetrations and wall edges

Outlets, doors, ducts and pipes are where sound leaks through. We settle which trade provides each seal, box or support before the board goes on, and build the top, bottom and side connections to the detail. Substitutions go through the designer.

Keep acoustic drywall distinct from ceiling tile

Four in ten Centralia households rent, and about 17% of the city's homes are in buildings of five or more units, where the wall or floor-ceiling between neighbors is what people hear through. Acoustic drywall belongs to that wall or ceiling. A suspended tile ceiling is a different system with its own grid and plenum, and sound also travels around a wall through floors, ceilings and doors, so the drawings need to show those edges.

Send the assembly and we'll price it

The plan tag, wall elevations, assembly details and the finish schedule are what we price from. Note anything another trade has to finish before we close in.

Acoustic Drywall questions in Centralia

Does acoustic drywall make a room soundproof?

No board does that alone. A well-built assembly reduces noise, and its rating belongs to the whole wall as tested and installed.

Can a wall receive a generic STC rating from a service page?

No. Use the STC shown for the approved assembly on your plans. Framing, layers, insulation, edges and openings all change the number.
