I’m building a garden office / studio space and it needs to be more or less soundproof. I struggled to find many videos on RU-vid about this so thought I’d make a new mini-series about my approach to this.
Part 2 (geeky overview): • Building a Soundproof ...
I’m not going to re-invent the wheel so if you just want to know how to build a garden room follow these awesome channels:

Conversely, my partner is an engineer. It has been PAINFUL with him building my kitchen extension. Up, down. Up, down. Resetting, re squaring up. And then, standing back and critically examining every joint. It looks great. And, I am now an authority on mortar mix, block weights. Imperial size bricks and wall plates. Bless.

@CharlieDIYte

@@GosforthHandyman Great vid, mate. Personally I'm in the Steve camp on hybrid roofs. There are (to my mind, and what do I know...) too many flaws with the hybrid idea, not least the multiple perforations of the vapour barrier for installation of the down lights. It's either warm or its cold and if it's cold, I think it needs ventilating.
@johnmit
@johnmit 3 года назад
@@CharlieDIYte Yep - for a proper hybrid roof to work it needs at least half the insulation above the structural deck (i.e. as per a warm roof). Oakwood's 'hybrid' roof is essentially a cold roof with no ventilation. They might just about work in a garden room provided the humidity levels are kept low (so no shower rooms). The commercial composite panels that Tim from Restoration Couple used (and Oakwood have trialled recently) look very promising - you get a warm roof + structure + weatherproofing + internal finish/vpc all in a ~100mm depth. And these are all excellent videos, as are yours. So much more informative and helpful then the Collins DIY Manual I've got sat on the shelf!

My brother is building me a garden office atm. To get round the 2.5m rule, we're having a step down from the door. The concrete blocks will be waterproofed inside so no damp. He's just built pillars along the single layer of concrete blocks. We'll then insulate, plaster board etc. Also as the door is more central, he's made a pitch over it to again give more height inside - bit difficult to explain without pictures. The roof is being tiled to match the house. Interesting to see different methods.

Did the same, step down --- mostly because I wanted a green roof as it's 25% of whole back garden, while 60% is a concrete 1980s patio plus some more passage leaving less than 5% bedding. Roof joists for carrying 120kg/sq m eat up vertical space.

I know because I had to calculate the load weigh of what I could carry in my trailer.

@@GosforthHandyman yes i had that first time on a job at the start of this lockdown when i did a canopy for someone. as you say every screw you put in you got a pint of water out, i really wanted to leave the timber to sit around and dry for a while before using it but they did not want to wait so now im waiting for it to warm up and the timber shrink creating gaps everywhere

Blimey, reckon you dodged a bullet by making sure that lot didn't do any more damage than they did. Nice recovery!

Any particular reason for using what looks like rockwool insulation over other types (e.g. rigid PIR plates) of insulation?
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman 3 года назад
Just what the builders happened to use. Will be Rockwool acoustic slabs in the ceiling. 👍

Andy you would need to put a damp proof at your door and window openings your inside block work should be returned to the outside block work otherwise the damp can travel to the inside wall .I am telling you this as I am a bricklayer not criticising your work I think all your work is excellent

I've never seen a piece of wood mortared in before. I didn't know you could do that.

What happened with the joist sizes? Did you manage to lighten the roof weight so that single 44x144C24's could work?

Hey no worries at all and thanks again! Yeah, went for the 144's so that I could have better ventilation over the 100mm insulation. 👍

Sorry if I missed it but what is the floor area? I thought that if it was under 15m2 then building regulations didn’t apply with regards to non combustible materials?
@GosforthHandyman
@GosforthHandyman 3 года назад
It's just over 16m2 👍
