Planning the drop in Hertford
Rolls are light enough to travel with a mixed load and are handed off at the kerb. Hertford is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around SG13 are priced to the exact address.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
Choosing 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.
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.
How much will you need?
An extension in Hertford with 36 m of cavity wall needs DPC in both leaves: about 3 rolls in 30 m lengths once laps are allowed for. A 25 m² floor slab needs about 28.7 m² of DPM including laps, which is 1 roll of 4 × 25 m sheeting.
Your questions answered
Can I add other materials to my Hertford delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from damp proofing to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
Do you supply cavity trays?
Yes, with stop ends and weep vents for openings and abutments.
How thick should a DPM be?
1200-gauge polythene, around 300 microns, is a common specification for floor slabs. Your design may call for something different.
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Hertford?
There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
