Expert Q
Question:
Last Saturday I spoke to you about putting some sound deadening into a bedroom ceiling. You suggested I put 7/8 inch sound board in 4X8 sheets on the lath and plaster an then place my resilient channel on the sound board. I called every lumber yard here in London, Ontario and called the acoustic supply outlets and no one has heard of such a product. They told me they might be able to obtain it if they knew the product name. Could you please let me know the product name for the sound board so I can get it on order as no seems to have it here.
Answer:
Locally I buy it at a drywall supply depot.
