Getting the right damp proofing
Is radon protection needed?
Parts of the UK need radon protection in new buildings and extensions. UKHSA radon maps show the areas; building control 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 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.

- In summer Halesowen gets around 16h 49m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
Ordering damp proofing for Halesowen: 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.

Where does the DPC go?
