Solving Gym Noise Complaints: Soundproofing Solutions for Commercial Fitness Spaces

Solving Gym Noise Complaints: Soundproofing Solutions for Commercial Fitness Spaces

Shaun Snaith
Noise complaints are one of the biggest risks for gyms and fitness businesses—especially in mixed-use or urban buildings. Here’s how to stop complaints before they start, protect your reputation, and keep your lease secure.

The Real Cost of Gym Noise Complaints

  • Fines or legal action from local councils
  • Tense relationships with neighbours and landlords
  • Negative reviews and lost business

How Soundproofing Products Can Prevent Complaints

Imagine a gym in a busy city centre that receives frequent noise complaints from neighbouring businesses. By installing Terrac Rubber Underlay to reduce impact noise, Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) on shared walls to block airborne noise, and acoustic panels to control internal echo, the gym could significantly reduce noise transmission. As a result, noise complaints could drop dramatically, helping protect the gym’s reputation and business.
