Damp Proofing & Membranes delivered to Bo’ness

Damp proofing materials stop moisture rising or passing through a building: a damp-proof course (DPC) in the walls and a damp-proof membrane (DPM) under the floor.

Whether it is a repair, an extension or a new build in Bo’ness, we can supply the damp proofing and deliver to site.

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around EH51 are priced to the exact address.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Things to check before you order

Is radon protection needed?

Parts of the UK need radon protection in new buildings and extensions. UKHSA radon maps show the areas; the council's building standards service will tell you what applies.

DPC width

Match the DPC width to the wall leaf so it runs the full width of the masonry.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
