Specialist Studio Construction Services

Studio construction is specialist building work. Isolated walls, floating floors and decoupled ceilings all require a level of precision that standard construction trades are not set up to deliver. StudioBuild carries out studio construction to the specification a working studio actually needs.

We build the isolation shell, fit acoustic treatment and coordinate the electrical and technical infrastructure your studio requires, following a design produced by our team or by yours.

Technical Considerations in Studio Construction

Studio construction is an engineering discipline as much as a building one, with precision affecting the final result.

Sound isolation: decoupled construction methods are executed precisely to achieve the specified isolation performance.

Structural coordination: floating floors and isolated ceilings are built without compromising the building's structure.

Ventilation: ductwork is designed and installed to maintain isolation while keeping the room comfortable.

Electrical coordination: power and cabling are installed to support the technical equipment the studio will use.

Quality control: isolation and acoustic performance are tested against the design specification before handover.

Studio Construction FAQs

Can you build to a design produced by another company?

Yes, we can construct to an existing acoustic design and specification, or produce our own design as part of the project.

Do you work as a subcontractor on larger building projects?

Yes, we regularly work alongside main contractors and architects, delivering the specialist studio construction elements of a wider project.

How do you test the finished construction?

We test isolation and acoustic performance against the design specification before handing over the finished studio.

Can studio construction be carried out in an occupied building?

Yes, we plan construction sequencing to minimise disruption where studio construction takes place within an occupied property.
