Calculate the cost of soundproofing and sound absorption – Plan your project efficiently
Planning a soundproofing or sound absorption project can be challenging, especially when trying to get a clear overview of the costs. By using our cost calculator, you can quickly estimate the price of the materials needed to create an optimal sound environment, whether you want to reduce noise between rooms, improve acoustics in an open space, or create a more pleasant work environment.
This tool provides a quick and simple overview of material costs, making it easier to plan and make informed decisions. Whether you are a professional installer or a private individual, the calculator helps you create a realistic budget and avoid unnecessary expenses.
Why use a cost calculator?
Having an accurate cost estimate offers several advantages:
Optimized material usage
Avoid buying too much or too little material.
Cost-effective planning
Create a realistic budget and get a clear picture of expenses.
Easier comparison
See cost differences between different materials and solutions.
Better end result
By planning correctly from the beginning, you can achieve an effective sound environment without unnecessary costs.
Having a clear cost overview from the start makes the project easier to execute and ensures you get maximum results with the right material selection.
What affects the cost of soundproofing and sound absorption?
Several factors influence the final cost:
Material selection
Soundproofing and sound-absorbing materials have different properties and price ranges.
Soundproofing
Often requires heavier and denser materials such as plasterboard, mineral wool, or acoustic membranes.
Sound absorption
Uses porous materials such as polyester, foam, or textiles to reduce reverberation.
The higher the performance of the material, the more effective the sound reduction – but also the higher the cost.
Installation method
Installation affects the total project cost.
Simpler installation
Sound-absorbing panels can be mounted directly on walls or ceilings and require minimal labor.
Advanced installation
Soundproofing solutions may require multi-layer constructions or decoupled systems, increasing labor costs.
Labor costs
For larger projects, installation costs can be a significant part of the budget.
Self-installation
A cheaper option for sound absorbers and simpler soundproofing.
Professional installation
Recommended for larger construction projects where higher sound requirements apply.
Room type and existing conditions
The cost is also affected by the room’s size, shape, and existing surfaces.
- Large open areas require more material to achieve effective sound absorption.
- Rooms with hard surfaces (concrete, glass) have a greater need for sound-absorbing materials than rooms with textiles and furniture.
By comparing these factors in our cost calculator, you can get an accurate and realistic budget for your project.
How much does it cost to soundproof or sound absorb a room?
The price for soundproofing or sound absorption varies depending on the scope of the project and material selection.
Basic sound absorption (simple acoustic panels)
300–800 SEK per square meter.
Medium-level soundproofing (sound-absorbing boards, plasterboard, and mineral wool)
800–1500 SEK per square meter.
Advanced soundproofing (multi-layer walls, acoustic glass, professional installation)
1500–4000 SEK per square meter.
By getting an exact estimate in the cost calculator, you can see which solution best fits your budget and sound requirements.
Our cost calculator provides you with a fast, accurate, and customized estimate of the cost to optimize the sound environment in your room.
