Noise is one of the biggest complaints in modern commercial interiors. Open floor plans, hard surfaces, and high ceilings create environments where sound bounces, conversations overlap, and concentration suffers. Acoustic solutions address these problems by absorbing excess noise, controlling sound transfer between spaces, and improving speech intelligibility — making workplaces, healthcare facilities, and public spaces more comfortable and productive.
Nardi Construction is headquartered in Gurnee, Illinois, and provides acoustic panel installation and soundproofing services throughout Chicagoland and the tristate area. We also support acoustic projects nationwide for clients who need reliable, experienced installation as part of a larger construction or renovation scope.
Our Acoustic Solutions
Wall-Mounted Acoustic Panels
Wall-mounted acoustic panels are the most common solution for reducing reverberation and echo in commercial spaces. We install fabric-wrapped panels, PET felt panels, wood slat panels, and custom designs in offices, conference rooms, lobbies, and common areas. Panels can be matched to your interior design in a wide range of colors, textures, and sizes.
Ceiling Panels & Acoustic Baffles
When wall space is limited or ceilings are high, ceiling-mounted acoustic panels and hanging baffles provide effective sound absorption. We install cloud panels, suspended baffles, and direct-mount ceiling tiles that reduce noise levels in open offices, cafeterias, atriums, and large conference rooms while adding visual interest to the ceiling plane.
Soundproofing & Sound Isolation
For spaces that require true sound isolation — private offices, exam rooms, therapy rooms, and recording studios — we build wall, ceiling, and floor assemblies designed to block sound transmission. This includes double-stud walls, resilient channel systems, acoustic insulation, sealed joints, and STC-rated door and window assemblies.
Open Office Acoustic Solutions
Open office layouts present unique acoustic challenges. We install freestanding acoustic dividers, desk-mounted screens, under-desk panels, and strategic ceiling treatments that reduce noise without closing off the space. These solutions help create zones for focused work while preserving the collaborative atmosphere of an open plan.
How We Approach Acoustics
Every space has different acoustic needs depending on its size, shape, surface materials, and how it's used. We evaluate your space and recommend the right combination of absorption, isolation, and coverage to achieve the acoustic performance you need. Whether you're retrofitting an existing office or planning acoustic treatments as part of a new buildout, we integrate acoustic solutions with the rest of the construction scope for a seamless result.
