We just had Ned and his team at Hush soundproof our apartment. We were having terrible issues with our neighbor who were hard of hearing and would play their TV, music, and piano very loud. Ned finished the work on time, was very professional and a great communicator, and since then we have not heard a peep from our neighbors. Highly recommend Ned and his team for soundproofing or general contracting!
Project detail:Wall soundproofing on two floors to reduce noise level coming from aerial subway. We were having pretty disruptive noise on two floors (back of our house). Not something that could be addressed by only changing / upgrading windows.Responsiveness: 10/10- Ned replied to my emails / questions throughout the process very quickly (often within an hour, even pretty late in the evening)Its a very rare quality to find a contractor that is responsive with follow-through. Ned excels in customer service.Timeline: 10/10- Ned predicted 20 business for the work that needed to be done and it took exactly 20 daysQuality: 10/10- All of the new walls put in place were perfectly straight and well finished.- The paint job was very good as well.Challenges:- Convincing my wife to start the project- Having to relocate for 20 daysResult: 10/10Incredible results, theres no more shaking, no more sound coming from the walls.I would clearly use Neds team again if I was to decide to further improve sound proofing in my house.
Ned and his team are an absolute blessing. I called him about soundproofing my bedroom ceiling to block out creaking floors in my upstairs neighbor’s apartment that routinely woke me up before 4am for an entire year. He wasted no time getting me all the paperwork for my coop and starting the job so I could be on my way to actually getting a full night of sleep so I could function in my life again. The building super was so impressed with all of the members of Ned’s team that he asked for their information to add Hush to the list of preferred vendors. Ned also corrected the work of a previous contractor that attempted to soundproof my living room wall that was still allowing the noise from my neighbor’s TV to come through. The previous contractor had failed to seal gaps behind the baseboard to the floor and the outlets weren’t addressed, essentially leaving gaping holes from one apartment to the other. Ned even took the time to make sure my internet was back up and running before he left and that I could reinstall my blackout curtains to enjoy a peaceful night of rest the same night. I’m so grateful to have found Ned and Hush Soundproofing because I would not be enjoying the same quality of life that I finally am had he not come to address my situation. I can’t recommend having Ned and his team do this work for you enough!
Ned and his team are terrific! Ned diagnosed my sound problem very quickly, but then spent a lot of time helping me figure out the best solution. Once we settled on that solution, he had the necessary work done within a few days. The work he did has made a huge difference in the transmission of sound. You cannot go wrong with Hush Soundproofing.
We are on the 2nd floor of a building across from a strip of bars and restaurants. We have double windows but they can’t block the deep bass from the music.Ned came and diagnosed it and gave us a range of scenarios and different quotes.The pricing was very fair, but because of timing and cost, we decided to just start with the main wall facing the street.Ned was honest and let us know that we could not expect to block the full spectrum of sound with just this (sound is like water and will find a way to come in through any means).Ned and his crew went out of their way the amount of layers they worked in was amazing. They are knowledgable, super nice, and really great workers.There is still sound that comes in but it is not the physical assault that it once was and has really restored our home.
If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. Working with Ned and his team went way beyond our expectations. We wanted to soundproof our apartment floors and did quite a bit of research and experimenting before contacting a professional. We tried various rugs with fancy padding beneath them, foam mats, and more, but nothing seemed to do the job we needed it to. From the first day Ned came over to assess our situation, it was not only clear that he knew what he was doing but also that he was trustworthy and actually cared about getting the job done well (and aesthetically pleasing). We started the job and completed it as quickly as possible - 4 layers of soundproofing over our original flooring (so it can be taken out if we move with little to no repercussions). Ned communicated with us throughout the whole process, sending photos/ videos, helping out with flooring decisions (he has a good eye for design), and answering our many questions along the way. He even played a mediator role with our neighbors (the reason we did this), one that Im not sure anyone else could have managed with such grace and patience. In the end, the floors look WAAAAY better than we could have imagined, and they managed to cover wall-to-wall without having to trim the doors or compromise original molding. We are so grateful and couldnt recommend a better person for the job.
HUSH saved me in a jam. I’m a voiceover actress, but my laundry-room-turned- at-home-recording booth was no match for the sounds of Harlem- all kinds of random noise was leaking into my audio.I called several companies that were used to working different kinds of projects but didn’t understand my needs as a voiceover artist.But from the consultation (where he climbed over a fence on the roof to find a source of noise), to the actual work day, Ned and the HUSH team was professional, thorough, and had a great understanding of the space. He explained everything that they had done, answered all of my questions, and I felt like I could trust the work.Needless to say, my booth is awesome and my recordings now meet specs for my publishers (And i can’t even hear my bf when he’s working from home on the next floor- that’s dope). I’m totally happy, would definitely call Hush again, and I fully recommend them.
I asked Ned of HUSH soundproofing for some advice when he was working on my neighbors studio... He immediately came and did several quick fixes on my door seal, and was very informative when I asked him about further work that I might do in my piano studio to keep the sound from escaping. I recommend HUSH highly, and will be using them for all my future sound proofing work.
Ned/Hush is fantastic!He was prompt and efficient. I had a slightly tricky project, and he gave me multiple options to approach fixing the problem I was having, while working within my budget. I would highly recommend using Hush for your soundproofing/ acoustic needs... Ill be using him in the future when I set up my music studio.Thanks Ned!
Ned and his team were amazing to work with. Their attention to detail and quality surpassed my expectations (and I have high expectations!) They painted my entire one bedroom, refinished my hardwood floors, installed new engineered hardwood floor downstairs and updated two bathrooms. I look forward to working with them again on future projects!
I contacted HUSH on the app Thumbtack and they responded very quickly. I informed him of my situation and he gave it to me straight and honest. He could have said yes and taken my money but instead gave me great advice! Will definitely contact them in the future. Very rarely do you find honest guys in business !

2022-02-25Ned’s team soundproofed a noisy wall for us where sound was traveling up from the mechanicals in the basement. The difference is amazing!! Plus he couldn’t have been nicer - spent over an hour with us discussing various options. Once we settled on one he was able to squeeze us in quickly over dates when we were going to be out of town anyway, so the process was really painless for us. The wall looks brand new and most importantly it’s quieter! I will be calling Hush again in the future if I need any soundproofing!

2022-02-22Ned and his team worked a miracle soundproofing my ceiling and wall. Once they opened up the ceiling it was clear what a challenge the job was -- unexpected disintegrating wood framing, a missing subfloor upstairs, and a ton of holes -- but none of this daunted Ned; he truly went beyond what other contractors would have done in order to get to the root of the problems and solve the issues -- and he put in more work than I ever expected. He also has a great eye for design and installed a second layer to my ceiling with hidden lighting (in photo), which definitely adds value to the apartment. Throughout the whole process I always felt in great hands with Hush -- their level of experience, friendliness, clear communication, and standard of work surpassed my expectations. Id recommend them to anyone experiencing airborne or foot fall noise issues coming through ceilings or walls. Its such a relief to work with great people and have the results turn out better than anticipated.

2022-01-24Hush soundproofing is the real deal. When investing in soundproofing a couple of rooms in our condo, we realized just how important it is to work with a competent, trustworthy company that specializes in soundproofing. We spoke with several contractors that all claimed to know how to solve our noise issues but all the other companies did not have the knowledge, background, or interest in designing a soundproofing solution for our unique situation. Ned is a true expert in the space and came up with a unique and aesthetically pleasing solution for our noise issues from an adjoining apartment wall, a common hallway, and machinery on the roof.Ned and his team were incredibly polite, quiet and respectful as they worked in our home while we lived and worked from home. We are absolutely thrilled with the results. Hush met our deadlines, stayed within the budget, stayed in close communication, and delivered above the results we wanted. I’ve already recommended them to several of my friends and will continue to do so. I would happily have Hush address any of my soundproofing needs in the future.

2022-01-06Ned, of Hush Soundproofing would get ten stars if I could. Hes reliable, on time, listens to the client, and experienced. I hired Ned for two consultations on soundproofing a studio and other rooms. His excellent advice from years of experience proved to be exactly what was required to diminish and eliminate unwanted sounds. His attention to construction details for soundproofing makes him an asset in this competitive industry. I would hire Hush again without question for my future projects.

2022-02-02Ned is super knowledgeable, honest, and incredibly responsive. He was kind enough to talk to me (multiple times!) about noise concerns in my apartment and gave me honest & straightforward advice and told me exactly what to buy to address my problem. I didn’t need to end up hiring him and he made no money from our phone conversations, so I greatly appreciated his willingness to help!I’ll call Ned again when I (hopefully) buy an apartment and am in need of soundproofing services.

The room is now whisper silent but looks identical to the original room. The work they all do is magical. Highly recommend Ned and Hush Soundproofing to anyone who is in need of soundproofing work.
