Damp Proofing & Membranes delivered to Hornchurch

  • On busy streets in Hornchurch, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

A quick quantity check

An extension in Hornchurch with 12 m of cavity wall needs DPC in both leaves: about 1 roll 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.

Picking the right product

Laps and joints

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

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.

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.
