Frequently Asked Questions

Acoustic fencing works by utilising a combination of absorption and reflection to reduce noise pollution. These fences are typically made from dense materials like timber, concrete, or vinyl, which help absorb sound waves. Additionally, the solid structure of the fence reflects sound waves away from the protected area, further minimising noise intrusion. Some acoustic fences even incorporate air gaps or porous materials to further dampen sound vibrations.

Acoustic fencing is effective at reducing a wide range of noises, including:

  • Traffic noise: Busy roads, highways, and even the rumble of passing trains can be significantly muffled by acoustic fencing.
  • Construction noise: The clatter and bang of construction work can be a major nuisance, but acoustic fencing can provide a valuable buffer zone for nearby residents.
  • Industrial noise: Factories and other industrial facilities often generate loud machinery noise, which can be mitigated by well-designed acoustic fencing.
  • Loud neighbours: Whether it's barking dogs, late-night parties, or DIY enthusiasts, acoustic fencing can offer some respite from unwanted noise.

The cost of acoustic fencing can vary depending on several factors, including the material used, fence height, length, and complexity of installation. Generally, it's more expensive than traditional fencing options like chain link or wood. However, the long-term benefits of noise reduction and increased peace of mind can make it a worthwhile investment for many property owners. For a bespoke quotation please contact PR Fencing.

Like any other outdoor structure, acoustic fencing requires some upkeep to maintain its effectiveness. Regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris is essential, especially for porous materials that can trap sound-absorbing particles. Additionally, checking for any gaps or damage to the fence is important to ensure optimal noise reduction.
