  • On busy streets in Crewe, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Things to check before you order

DPC width

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

Laps and joints

DPM and DPC need generous laps and sealed joints; follow the manufacturer's guidance.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Ordering damp proofing for Crewe: FAQs

What is the difference between DPC and DPM?

DPC is a strip built into walls to stop damp rising through the masonry. DPM is a sheet laid under a concrete floor slab. They are lapped together so there is no gap.

How soon can damp proofing be delivered in Crewe?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Can you deliver damp proofing to a site with restricted access in Crewe?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Do you supply cavity trays?

Yes, with stop ends and weep vents for openings and abutments.
