Office Interior Specialist Source One Consulting Delights More Customers

We may be one of the region’s leading office interior specialists but it’s what our customers say that really counts. So it’s always particularly satisfying when a customer is delighted with our efforts and would recommend us to other business owners.

Sharedband and Source One in the East Anglian Daily TimesJust take a look at what Tim Burne, chief operating officer of Sharedband said in this week’s East Anglian Daily Times:

“We spoke to a few local office interiors companies, but Pat and Source One were the obvious choice for us, based on past performance with their clients and the speed they responded to our requirements.”

“Pat and his team were able to handle all the organisation of our project with regard to the partitioning, new data and electrics, furniture and even the dilapidation of our old premises. This released us to get on with our own tasks and leave control of all the elements of the project to Pat. A real time-saver! I would certainly recommend Pat and Source One to other business owners.”

Control the Noise in Your Office or Workplace

There is no doubt that too much noise in an office proves disruptive and distracting. It certainly does not have a positive impact on your employees or business.

However, with some effective space planning and the clever use of furniture and materials it is possible to achieve an acoustic balance that will significantly reduce the disruptive noise in your work place.

The use of partitions, screens and furniture can be an efficient way to block sound from travelling across a workspace.  The choice of extra dense core materials with absorbent outer surfaces will further soak up the sound.

Source One work with some of the leading suppliers of acoustic technology and can supply and fit specialist ceiling tiles and reverb wall panels that can absorb excessive noise.

To cover unwanted sounds, a fully digital sound masking system is a highly effective option.

If you would like to improve the acoustic balance in your office and consider the different options available give Source One a call today on 08456 131 585.
