QuietRock Installation in the Bay Area
Ron Hogan Drywall hangs and finishes QuietRock so a wall is quieter than standard gypsum — bedrooms, offices, media rooms, and commercial interiors. It is a better board, not a magic silent room.

What QuietRock Is
QuietRock is gypsum with a constrained damping layer inside the panel. That layer turns vibration into a small amount of heat instead of sending the sound through the wall the way a single sheet of regular board does.
We commonly install QuietRock 510 and QuietRock 530. The right panel depends on the wall, the noise, and the drawings. We will not pick a product from a blog post if your plan already specifies one.
Where It Belongs
Homes
Shared walls, bedrooms next to living rooms, and home offices. Helps the wall. Windows and doors still leak sound.
Offices and TI
Conference rooms and tenant walls where the spec calls for a sound board, not extra foam.
Over Existing Drywall
A new QuietRock layer can go over a finished wall. Trim, boxes, and doors have to be planned. Open framing is cleaner when you can get it.
How We Install It
- Look at the noise path and whether the wall is open or finished
- Confirm 510, 530, or the panel on your drawings
- Hang on wood or metal with the fastener schedule that panel needs
- Seal the perimeter where the assembly calls for it
- Tape, finish, and leave the wall ready for primer and paint
Honest Limits
- QuietRock outperforms standard gypsum on the same wall. It does not erase Highway noise through glass.
- Footsteps from the floor above are a floor/ceiling problem. Wall board alone will not “silence” them.
- Lab STC numbers assume a tested assembly. Your house is not a lab.
- We install and finish the board. We do not guarantee a silent room.

QuietRock FAQs
510 or 530 — which do I need?
Depends on the wall and the spec. Tell us the noise and whether the framing is open. We will not upsell a panel you do not need.
Can you finish QuietRock like regular drywall?
Yes. Tape, texture, or a smooth Level 4 / Level 5 after it is hung.
Is QuietRock enough by itself?
It is a strong upgrade to the board. Sealed edges and the rest of the assembly still matter. Read the guide →
