Three tools, one purpose: clarity before you spend. Start free, go as deep as you or your situation needs.
CHOOSE THE DEPTH YOUR DECISION NEEDS
Every noise problem doesn't require the same level of investigation. Start with the least amount of diagnosis needed to make the next decision confidently.
The free two-minute diagnostic.
When you are not yet sure what kind of problem you have.
Identifies the sound pathway most worth investigating and tells you what this quick screen cannot determine.
Best question it answers:
“Where should I start looking?”
When you have a reasonable idea what's happening but want to test that assumption before spending money.
Identifies your most likely dominant pathway, flags secondary and flanking risks, assesses DIY suitability and helps you avoid committing money to the wrong problem.
Best question it answers:
“Is my interpretation sensible enough to act on?”
Includes our MEASUREMENT GUIDE for Free ($67). Plus as a further bonus your $197 is credited against the cost if you decide to upgrade to the Full Diagnostic Code.
When several pathways may interact, structural work is being considered, or there is enough money at stake to justify a deeper investigation.
Builds a more detailed picture from the information you provide, ranks likely weak points, identifies interacting pathways and puts the recommended actions into a sensible sequence.
Includes the complete Fix Path Guide Series and a briefing framework for your chosen trade or installer.
Best question it answers:
“What should I investigate or address first, what follows it, and what could undermine the plan?”
Includes the complete Fix Path Guide Series & Our Measurement Guide for FREE, as a bonus (Value $402).
When you've done the diagnostic work and want another set of experienced eyes on how you're interpreting it.
A Confidence Call does not turn your report into engineering advice.
It pressure-tests your understanding, clarifies uncertainties and helps determine whether you have enough information to proceed or whether the right decision is to stop and investigate further.
Best question it answers:
“Am I reading this correctly before I commit?”
WHAT THE DIAGNOSTIC's DO
Noise shows up in hundreds of types of situations, footsteps upstairs, a humming AC unit, voices through a wall, an echoey room..... Every one resolves into one of five sound paths or a combination of paths that require fixing. The diagnostic works out which is yours, so you're never guessing which fix you need.
Voices, TV and music passing straight through walls, doors and windows.
Footsteps, banging and vibration travelling through the building itself.
Hums, rumbles and drones from AC, pumps, fans and plumbing.
Sound bouncing around inside the room making it loud, harsh, or hard to hear in.
Sound sneaking around the barrier through gaps, ducts and junctions, the reason a fix sometimes underperforms.
Most spaces have more than one in play. That's exactly what the diagnostic untangles, so you treat the cause, not the symptom.
Start with the free Clarity Navigator, it costs nothing and tells you which direction your problem points. If it's straightforward, the Noise Clarity Report may be all you need. If your situation is complex, with multiple rooms, structural change, a real budget on the line, then the Full Diagnostic gives you the depth to act with confidence. And because the $197 credits back, starting with the Report never costs you anything extra.
