About Ronan Blee
I served my apprenticeship as a carpenter and joiner in Ireland — learning the craft the old school way, exactly as it had been done for generations. By 19 years old I was building acoustic environments — walls, ceilings, floors & isolation systems — in hotels, concert halls & recording studios throughout Europe. By 1998, I was in New York City, where I've been building acoustic construction & soundproofing ever since.
Twenty-eight years later, Quiet Zone is New York City's trusted acoustic builder — recording studios, residential soundproofing, and commercial noise control across the NYC Metro area. Every project personally managed by me, with one dedicated construction team, built exactly to specification.
Studio designers, acoustic engineers & architects: we build your specs exactly.
What I Build
Recording studios, broadcast facilities, and music production spaces. Residential soundproofing for apartments, brownstones, and private homes. Commercial acoustic assemblies for offices, medical facilities, educational institutions, and mixed-use buildings. If it requires serious acoustic construction in the NYC Metro area — this is what I do.
Why It Matters
Twenty-eight years in NYC means I've built across every property type and acoustic challenge this market delivers — high-rise construction, subway vibration, pre-war buildings, mixed-use complexities, and strict building codes. That experience doesn't come from a classroom.
